BASF India Limited held its 82nd Annual General Meeting (AGM) on August 12, 2026, where a presentation was made to the shareholders.
The company highlighted its financial performance for FY 2025-26, reporting a revenue of ₹15,539 crore, a 2% increase from the previous year, driven by higher volumes despite lower price realization. Profit Before Tax Before Exceptional Items (PBTbEI) stood at ₹564 crore, a decrease of 9% compared to FY 2024-25, impacted by higher input costs and product mix.
Quarterly performance for April-June 2026 showed significant growth, with revenue increasing by 29% to ₹4,998 crore and PBTbEI surging by 166% to ₹499 crore, attributed to higher volumes and better price realization. The company also noted that discontinued operations, including the Coatings business, were included in these figures.
Key strategic developments were presented, including the demerger of the Agricultural Solutions business into a separate entity, BASF Agricultural Solutions India Limited (BASIL). Shareholder approval for this demerger was secured with a 99.99% majority, and NCLT approval is expected by the end of 2026. Shareholders will receive a 1:1 share of BASIL, with its listing targeted for the first half of 2027, subject to approvals. The sale of the Coatings business to Carlyle Group was completed on June 30, 2026, for ₹230.16 crore, with the business now operating under the brand "Surventis".
Furthermore, BASF India is strengthening its local production footprint with a new dispersions line at Mangalore and capacity enhancement for Cellasto® at Dahej. The company also emphasized its commitment to Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS), reporting no high severity incidents and a strong safety track record. Innovations and strategic partnerships, such as the launch of the Clearfield® Mustard Production System with Corteva and new product launches in Agricultural Solutions, were also detailed. Engagement with key customers, industry associations, and CSR activities aligned with Sustainable Development Goals were also part of the presentation.
