About

About Indian Potash

Indian Potash Limited (IPL) is a Chennai-headquartered company that mainly imports and sells fertilisers to Indian farmers. Its main products are DAP and MOP (potash), along with complex fertilisers, TSP and speciality products. The Government of India has also asked it to run global tenders for major fertilisers to bring uniform import prices. The business grew sharply in FY26. The annual report says first point sales of all fertilisers (excluding canalised urea) were 8 million tonnes against 5.8 million tonnes a year earlier. Standalone revenue from operations was ₹32,534.83 crore against ₹20,688.91 crore in FY25. Profit for the year was ₹1,534.91 crore against ₹1,331.15 crore. These are standalone figures, as printed in the annual report. IPL has also diversified. It runs sugar mills and distilleries in Uttar Pradesh, has taken three co-operative sugar mills in Gujarat on operating lease, and has a dairy and cattle feed division. It has signed an MoU with the Odisha government to set up a new co-operative sugar mill on operating lease. It also has an associate company in Jordan. The company is unlisted. Its board has a chairman and nominee directors from fertiliser companies, state agencies and co-operatives, and its paid-up capital is 2,85,97,200 equity shares of ₹10 each. The annual report recommends a dividend of ₹20 per share for FY26. IPO Guru's indicative price for the share is ₹2,875, with a lot size of 25 shares and an implied market cap of about ₹8,221.7 crore. The company has no IPO journey on our records yet. Unlisted shares of a company like this trade off-market between buyers and sellers, so prices are indicative and not exchange-quoted.

Strengths

  • Revenue from operations grew to ₹32,534.83 crore in FY26 from ₹20,688.91 crore in FY25, driven by higher DAP and MOP volumes.
  • Profit for the year rose to ₹1,534.91 crore in FY26 from ₹1,331.15 crore in FY25, and earnings per share were ₹536.73.
  • Total equity grew to ₹9,010.46 crore at 31 March 2026 from ₹7,514.85 crore a year earlier.
  • The Government of India gave IPL the mandate to float a global tender for major fertilisers, which shows its standing in the import chain.
  • Other income of ₹1,800.60 crore in FY26 includes dividend income of ₹1,313 crore, which supports profit alongside trading.
  • Diversification into sugar, distillery and dairy gives it income streams that do not depend only on fertiliser subsidy.

Risks

  • Operating cash flow was negative ₹2,233.69 crore in FY26 against profit of ₹1,534.91 crore, as trade receivables rose by ₹3,684.41 crore.
  • Trade receivables stood at ₹8,246.11 crore at 31 March 2026 against ₹4,507.11 crore a year earlier, and the report says delayed government subsidy payments would hurt liquidity.
  • Current borrowings rose to ₹10,173.71 crore from ₹5,191.99 crore, and finance costs more than doubled to ₹1,176.52 crore.
  • The company booked a forex loss of ₹933.82 crore in FY26 as the rupee weakened, since it pays for imports in dollars.
  • The report says DAP remained loss-making because government compensation was not adequate, and phosphatic fertiliser retail prices and subsidy rates are controlled.
  • GST of ₹3,204 crore was blocked at 31 March 2026 because of the higher subsidy amount.
  • Demand depends on the monsoon, and the report notes the IMD forecast of rainfall at 90% of the long period average for 2026.
  • The three new Gujarat sugar mills are still being refurbished, and the sugar division profit fell to ₹35 crore from ₹81 crore.
