Rallis India Limited, a Tata Enterprise and one of India's leading agri-input companies, reported a resilient performance for the first quarter of FY27, registering growth in revenue, profitability, and key business segments, supported by portfolio expansion, disciplined pricing, and focused market execution.
Rallis, a subsidiary of Tata Chemicals, has established a reputation of being a trusted solutions provider for agri-inputs, globally, with an accent on innovation, a thorough knowledge of farm science and a penetrative distribution network.
The company reported revenue of Rs. 1,022 crore for Q1 FY27, compared with Rs. 957 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year, reflecting a 7% year-on-year growth. EBITDA increased 23% YoY, while Profit After Tax (PAT) rose 31% to Rs. 125 crore, compared with Rs. 95 crore in Q1 FY26.
Commenting on the performance, Dr. Gyanendra Shukla, Managing Director & CEO, Rallis India Limited, said the company delivered a resilient quarter driven by focused execution across businesses, improved profitability, and continued investments in strengthening its portfolio and capabilities.
The Crop Care business reported revenue of Rs. 697 crore, registering 7% YoY growth. The growth was primarily driven by a strong 19% increase in the B2C segment, although it was partially offset by a 19% decline in the B2B segment during the quarter. The company strengthened its crop protection portfolio by launching three new products—Balwan (Herbicide), Prodim Ultra (Herbicide), and Kengen (Insecticide). Strategic product placements, targeted field programmes, and focused liquidation initiatives also supported business performance.
The Soil & Plant Health (SPH) segment recorded 10% year-on-year growth, supported by focused portfolio management, prudent pricing actions, and continued contributions from biostimulants, biofertilizers, and organic products. The commercial launch of Aquafert Ginger and Turmeric further expanded the company's product portfolio during the quarter.
The Seeds business reported revenue of Rs. 325 crore, registering 6% YoY growth, driven by strategic product placements and focused pre-season initiatives. During the quarter, the business introduced nine new products across cotton, paddy, and millet crops, including two new cotton hybrids for North India and a Herbicide Tolerant Direct Seed Rice product under the Dhaanya brand.
Dr. Shukla said the company continued to strengthen its product portfolio through new product introductions while improving profitability through disciplined pricing actions and cost optimization initiatives. He added that Rallis remains committed to delivering differentiated solutions for Indian agriculture through continued investments in innovation, customer-centricity, and operational excellence.
Rallis India, a subsidiary of Tata Chemicals Limited and part of the Tata Group, continues to serve Indian agriculture through a broad portfolio of crop care, seeds, and plant nutrition products supported by an extensive distribution network of 7,200 dealers and over 95,000 retailers across the country.
