Tata Chemicals Limited reported its unaudited consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Consolidated revenue from operations increased by 14% to ₹4,255 Cr compared to Q1FY26, driven by higher volumes. However, consolidated EBITDA decreased to ₹555 Cr from ₹649 Cr in the prior year period, primarily due to lower realisations in overseas subsidiaries, particularly US exports to Southeast Asia. Profit After Tax (PAT) saw a significant drop to ₹60 Cr from ₹316 Cr, attributed to lower realisations, reduced other income, and lower JV income. Standalone revenue grew 10% to ₹1,281 Cr, with EBITDA up 35% to ₹364 Cr and PAT from continuing operations up 12% to ₹343 Cr. The company highlighted a challenging near-term outlook for Industrial Essentials (Soda Ash) due to global oversupply and weak demand, while Living Essentials and Farm Essentials segments showed positive outlooks.
