Performance Highlights – Q4 & FY25
SCI 2.0
✓ FY25 was a year of solid recovery and operational resilience. Achieved a healthy 11% year-on-year revenue growth in FY25, led by robust volume expansion across domestic and export markets. This was delivered despite continued pressure on pricing in multiple product categories (approximately 10% adverse impact of pricing in both domestic and export markets).
✓ Maintained healthy topline momentum by leveraging improved asset utilization and enhanced go-to-market execution, with a strong focus on deepening
penetration across key geographies.
✓ Robust Domestic Performance:
▪
Continued growth momentum in the domestic market supported by a strong Rabi season.
▪ On-ground demand generation initiatives such as the ‘Every Day Farmers Day’ (EDFD) campaign played a key role in strengthening channel engagement and
farmer connect.
▪
Proactive liquidation of high-cost inventory helped protect margins in a deflationary pricing environment.
✓ Exports Stable on Full-Year Basis:
▪ Despite global market headwinds adversely impacting few products in Q4 & pricing pressure, exports witnessed significant growth on a full-year basis. ▪ Growth was supported by diversification into new geographies.
✓ FY25 profitability saw a significant uptrend, surpassing FY24 and exceeding FY23 benchmarks, with record-high EBITDA and PAT margins (in percentage terms) and
the highest-ever absolute PAT. This was driven by a favorable product mix, disciplined cost management, and procurement efficiencies.
✓ Commercial production of CTPR (Chlorantraniliprole) commenced at the Tarapur facility, reinforcing our backward integration strategy. ✓ Launched innovative products such as Meshi, Portion, and Ormie during the year. Recently received regulatory approval in India for two innovative patented high-
potential molecules of SCC - Excalia Max (fungicide) and Lentigo (an herbicide)
✓ Barrix Agro Sciences, our subsidiary, delivered a remarkable performance in its first full year under the Sumitomo umbrella, registering robust revenue growth of
approximately 82% and effecting a complete operational turnaround — from an EBITDA margin of negative 15% in the previous year to a positive 16% in FY25.
✓ Early onset and forecast of normal monsoon, along with stable commodity prices and sowing acreage, augur well for demand outlook for FY26. Our continued focus
on launching and ramping up new products, leveraging distribution strength and optimizing costs is expected to drive sustained performance.
