Rallis India, a Tata Enterprise and a leading player in India's agri-inputs industry, reported a strong start to FY27, posting a 7% year-on-year increase in revenue and sharp gains in profitability for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

 

The company reported revenue of Rs. 1,022 crore for the first quarter, up from Rs. 957 crore in the corresponding period last year. Profit after tax (PAT) rose 31% to Rs. 125 crore, compared with Rs. 95 crore a year earlier, while EBITDA grew 23% year-on-year.

 

Growth was driven by broad-based performance across businesses, supported by focused market interventions, portfolio expansion and improved operational efficiency.

 

The Crop Care business recorded revenue of Rs. 697 crore, up 7% year-on-year, led by a robust 19% growth in the B2C segment, which partially offset a 19% decline in the B2B business. 

 

During the quarter, the company strengthened its crop protection portfolio with the launch of three new products—Balwan (Herbicide), Prodim Ultra (Herbicide) and Kengen (Insecticide). Strategic product placements, targeted field programmes and focused liquidation initiatives also supported performance.

 

The Soil & Plant Health (SPH) business posted 10% year-on-year growth, driven by focused portfolio management, prudent pricing actions and sustained contributions from biostimulants, biofertilizers and organic products. The commercial launch of Aquafert Ginger and Turmeric further expanded the segment's product portfolio.

 

The Seeds business reported revenue of Rs. 325 crore, registering 6% year-on-year growth, supported by strategic product placements and focused pre-season initiatives. The business launched nine new products across cotton, paddy and millet crops during the quarter, including two new cotton hybrids for North India and a Herbicide Tolerant Direct Seed Rice product under the Dhaanya brand.

 

Commenting on the company's performance, Gyanendra Shukla, Managing Director & CEO, Rallis India Limited, said: "During the quarter, we continued to strengthen our product portfolio through new product introductions across businesses while driving improved profitability through disciplined pricing actions and cost optimization initiatives. 

 

"We remain committed to delivering differentiated solutions that address the evolving needs of Indian agriculture through continued investments in innovation, customer-centricity and operational excellence."
