On the operational front, production volumes for FY26 grew 8% YoY, reaching 36.66 LMT. Sales volumes increased by 10% YoY, amounting to 42.10 LMT.

Market Strength and Sustainability Focus​

Mr. Krishnan noted that the deep distribution network spanning 18 states was key to the 22% growth in NPK sales (including TSP). He reaffirmed the company's commitment to offering innovative NPK grades for balanced fertilization and optimizing last mile delivery through digital interventions.
