Management Comments
N. Suresh Krishnan
PPL has demonstrated robust operational and financial performance for the FY26 reflecting the strength of our integrated operations and our resilience to navigate the global volatility. In FY 26, we have been able to achieve 3.67 MMTPA of Fertilizer production, achieving almost 100% capacity utilization of our existing capacities reflecting our continued endeavour for manufacturing excellence. During FY 26, we commissioned Sulphuric Acid Plant at Paradeep (500,000 MTPA) and at Mangalore (100,000 MTPA), thereby, increasing our Sulphuric Acid capacity at company level by 0.6 MMTPA, an increase of 45 % capacity. Our plan to double the phos acid capacity from 0.5 MMTPA to 1 MMTPA is on track and directionally we endeavour to make all our sites 100% backward integrated in Phos acid. The Phase 1 of this expansion – from 0.5 MMTPA to 0.7 MMTPA – at Paradeep is underway and is expected to be commissioned in FY 27. At the marketplace in FY 26, we have been able to grow our NPK sales (including TSP) by 22%, on the strength of our deep distribution network capabilities spanning across 18 states and strong brand equity. We remain committed to offer innovative NPK grades for balanced fertilization to Indian Farmers and optimize the last mile delivery through digital interventions. The enhanced long term credit rating AA-(stable) shall aid in our strive to optimize our working capital and long-term finance cost. Sustainability remains core to our operations and during the year FY 26 we achieved S&P Global ESG score of 76 and ranked in top 2 percentile in the Global Chemical Sector Looking ahead, we remain focused on driving growth through operational excellence, product innovation, and disciplined execution and create shareholders value.
