The April to June 2025 quarter remained challenging for the Indian agrochemical industry. A delayed and uneven onset of the southwest monsoon impacted the timely sowing of kharif crops, leading to subdued demand for agri-inputs, particularly herbicides. Farmers exercised caution in purchases due to uncertainty in rainfall and lower realizations from previous harvests. Additionally, channel inventories remained elevated in certain regions, further affecting primary sales. However, towards the latter part of June, rainfall improved, reviving optimism for the upcoming season and setting a foundation for recovery in the second quarter. India is likely to achieve a new record in foodgrain production during the 2025-26 Kharif season starting next month, buoyed by forecasts of above-normal monsoon rains. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast an above-normal southwest monsoon for the entire 2025 Kharif season (June to September). As shared in the last call, we introduced 1 new 9(3) product in Q1, Dinkar which is a herbicide for Paddy crop, and it has received highly encouraging response from farmers, especially in South region. The Shareholders of the Company in the 40th Annual General Meeting held today at 11.00 AM declared the Final Dividend of 100% that is Rs2/- per equity share having face value of Rs 2-/per share. The Company has already rewarded its Equity Shareholders with buy back of 5 lakh Equity Shares @ Rs 2000/- per Equity Share absorbing Rs 100 crore." Result PDF

Quarter 3 is important from the perspective of Rabi crops like Rice in South and East India, Wheat in North and Central India. This quarter is also important for farmers for harvest of Kharif crops and selling the harvest to generate money for the next season. In horticulture segment, Q3 is key season for Potato in North India, Grapes in West India Chilli in South India. This year the disease appearance in Potato, Grapes and Chilli was less, resulting in lower sales of some key fungicides. Also, due to carry over stocks of Chili from last season the commodity prices remained low resulting in fewer sprays in the crop. However, I am happy to share that we got excellent sales and Liquidation for the key product Lanevo as well as Mycore Super in this season. Both these products were introduced in this year it self and have been well accepted by farmers across India. Further, we introduced 1 new 9(4) product – “Roxa” – Pyroxasulfone 85% WG to control weeds in wheat crop and received good response from the market. We have also informed that the Company has acquired international rights to the active ingredients Iprovalicarb and Triadimenol (invented by Bayer AG). With this acquisition, Dhanuka plans to expand its footprint in more than 20 countries, including the regions of Latin America, Europe Middle East & Africa as well as Asia including India. This acquisition will enable Dhanuka to embark on a journey of global market expansion. Dhanuka will be shifting the manufacturing of at least one of the products to India, leveraging the capabilities of our manufacturing unit at Dahej, Gujarat. Result PDF
