GSFC Q1 FY27 Earnings: Sales Surge 64% to ₹3,583 Crore, PAT Rises 14% to ₹159 Crore
GSFC reported Q1 FY27 results with sales up 64% to ₹3,583 crore and PAT up 14% to ₹159 crore. Fertilizer sales rose 65% Y-o-Y to ₹2,947 crore. Industrial Products segment sales were ₹635 crore. Raw material price inflation impacted fertilizer margins, but the company maintains a strong balance sheet and is pursuing strategic capex projects.
The substantial increase in revenue and profit, coupled with strategic growth initiatives and capex plans, is expected to have a significant positive impact on the company's valuation and investor confidence.
The company reported significant year-on-year growth in sales and PAT, along with record Q1 revenue, indicating a strong operational and financial performance despite challenges like raw material price inflation.
Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals Limited (GSFC) reported strong financial performance for the first quarter of FY27 (ending June 30, 2026). Consolidated sales increased by 64% year-on-year to ₹3,583 crore, up from ₹2,184 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Profit Before Tax (PBT) saw a significant rise of 11% to ₹205 crore, and Profit After Tax (PAT) grew by 14% to ₹159 crore.
On a quarter-on-quarter basis, sales grew by 36% to ₹3,583 crore, with PBT increasing by 214% to ₹205 crore and PAT rising by 204% to ₹159 crore. The company achieved its highest ever Q1 revenue, driven by record Q1 fertilizer sales of ₹2,947 crore, representing a year-on-year growth of 65%, and 82% respectively. The Industrial Products segment contributed ₹635 crore in sales with an EBIT of ₹116 crore, marking the second-highest Q1 performance for this segment.
The Fertilizer segment registered a 17% year-on-year increase in sales volume to 5.26 lakh metric tons, supported by higher DAP sales and a government special package. However, the segment's EBIT margin compressed from 8.49% to 4.09% due to unprecedented inflation in raw material prices, including sulfur (up 231%), ammonia (up 144%), natural gas (up 38%), and P2O5 (up 30%). The Industrial Products segment delivered a robust performance with 15% sales growth and a more than fourfold increase in EBIT, driven by higher caprolactam sales and improved capro-benzene spread.
GSFC maintains a strong balance sheet with no long-term debt and healthy liquidity, supported by timely fertilizer subsidy releases from the Government of India. Strategic capex initiatives, including the APS capacity enhancement and phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid projects at Sikka, are underway to support long-term value creation.
Looking ahead to Q2 FY27, the company anticipates improved demand for agri-inputs due to monsoon revival, though geopolitical developments continue to pose uncertainty regarding raw material availability and pricing. Elevated input costs are expected to influence product mix, with demand likely skewed towards DAP. The caprolactam-benzene spread is expected to remain stable to soft. Melamine demand is projected to improve, and demand for other industrial products is expected to remain steady.
