Although margins were under pressure in the fertilizer and IPA businesses due to input cost pressures, this was more than offset by the robust performance from TAN and nitric acid.

The management of the company has said that the two growth projects – the ammonia backward integration and TAN capacity expansion – are on track to be commissioned by Q1FY24 and Q2FY25 respectively. The company also intends to increase its capacity utilisation of its fertiliser plants and increase its presence across states other than Maharashtra, Gujarat and Karnataka. The company’s strong earnings and expected commissioning of the ammonia project in early-FY24 is likely to be the key trigger driving up the stock price.
