Andhra Sugars' management made 0 promises we could check against what it later reported. (Our read after the latest results, written 22 August 2026.) ## What is the future of Andhra Sugars? What is changing in the business? What is changing at Andhra Sugars, from the latest results and calls: chlor-alkali and chemical product mix shift, ethanol capacity integration and government blending and operating leverage on captive industrial infrastructure. - Chlor-Alkali and Chemical Product Mix Shift. Strategic pivot toward industrial chemicals and caustic soda reduces reliance on commoditized sugar milling. ⚠ estimate - Ethanol Capacity Integration and Government Blending. Commissioned ethanol capacity monetizes molasses byproducts at contracted government procurement prices. ✓ fact - Operating Leverage on Captive Industrial Infrastructure. Fixed manufacturing costs drop incremental revenue directly to operating profit as utilization expands. ✓ fact - Deleveraging and Complete Interest Elimination. Debt reduction to 1 Cr eliminates interest expense and de-risks corporate cash flow. ✓ fact We check 16 kinds of change in every company, such as costs spread over more sales, higher-value products, new orders, new regions or falling debt, against its reported numbers and what management said on its calls. Only changes the numbers back are shown. (Our read after the latest results, written 22 August 2026.) ## What could change the Andhra Sugars story? What are the risks? A reversal in chlor-alkali operating margins below 6% combined with an adverse final legal liability on power charges exceeding 50 Cr that forces the company to re-lever its balance sheet. ### Each change stops working if - Chlor-Alkali and Chemical Product Mix Shift: Global caustic soda prices experience severe oversupply from Chinese capacity additions, compressing domestic realizations below cash cost. - Ethanol Capacity Integration and Government Blending: Government procurement pricing on grain or molasses-based ethanol is revised downward or feedstock allocation quotas are curtailed. - Operating Leverage on Captive Industrial Infrastructure: Power supply disruptions or raw material shortages force plant utilization below 60% of rated capacity. - Deleveraging and Complete Interest Elimination: Management initiates un-funded speculative debt-financed capital projects. ### The main risks - Regulatory Power Tariff and FPPCA Demand Risk: Outstanding power cost adjustment claims create potential retrospective liability on industrial operations. ⚠ estimate - Chlor-Alkali and Caustic Soda Price Cyclicality: Cyclical downturn in international and domestic caustic soda realizations compresses segment margins. ⚠ estimate - Sugarcane Availability and Climatic Monsoonal Volatility: Regional drought or crop disease in Andhra Pradesh reduces sugarcane crushing volumes. ⚠ estimate - Low Base Distortion and Quarterly Earnings Volatility: Trailing growth percentages reflect recovery from an unusually depressed base in fiscal 2025. ⚠ estimate (Our read after the latest results, written 22 August 2026.) ## What to watch in Andhra Sugars' next results?

Andhra Sugars is on one of our India lists: Penny stocks. [Penny stocks Earnings growth, 12 months (%): 205.1](https://www.sectoralpha.in/penny-stocks-india) ## Is Andhra Sugars profitable? Andhra Sugars Ltd earned ₹47.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +88.0% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹87.0 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 4.5% a year on average. That is 7.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹25.0 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹87.0 Cr (+222.2% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +4.5% on a year earlier and the margin moved +3.0 percentage points. Most of the change came from keeping more of each sale. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +222.7% and revenue +17.1%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra rupee of revenue adds more to profit. FY26-Q4. revenue ₹637 Cr and profit ₹6 Cr as reported. FY27-Q1. revenue ₹627 Cr and profit ₹47 Cr as reported. Why-sources: our stock research file (22 August 2026) and the company’s own results for those quarters. ## How much revenue does Andhra Sugars make, and is it growing? Andhra Sugars Ltd reported ₹627 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +4.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 8th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown 7.0% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹2,466 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,492 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹2,466 Cr, +22.1% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +17.1% on average, against 7.0% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +16.5%, against +15.1% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +205.6%, against +24.5% a year (accelerating). FY26-Q4. revenue ₹637 Cr and profit ₹6 Cr as reported. FY27-Q1. revenue ₹627 Cr and profit ₹47 Cr as reported. Why-sources: our stock research file (22 August 2026) and the company’s own results for those quarters. ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Andhra Sugars keep? Andhra Sugars Ltd's operating margin was 12.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 3.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 5.0% and 22.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +3.0 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +2.2 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. FY26-Q4. revenue ₹637 Cr and profit ₹6 Cr as reported. FY27-Q1. revenue ₹627 Cr and profit ₹47 Cr as reported. Why-sources: our stock research file (22 August 2026) and the company’s own results for those quarters. ## Is Andhra Sugars' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 288% of Andhra Sugars Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹278 Cr of operating cash against ₹87.0 Cr of profit. After ₹47.0 Cr of spending on assets, ₹231 Cr was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 288% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 147 days shorter between FY21 and FY26, so cash that used to wait in the business now arrives sooner. What to look at next: no single use of cash stands out. The next section checks both the cash tied up in daily operations and the spending on assets. ## Where does Andhra Sugars' cash go? Andhra Sugars Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 79 days in FY26, down from 226 days in FY21. It spent ₹282 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 34 days to pay, and stock sits for 76 days on average. Why this happened. Capital expenditure of 185 Cr dedicated to distillery and ethanol manufacturing enhances byproduct monetization from the sugar manufacturing process. Supply commitments under the national ethanol blending program provide price visibility and buffer seasonal swings in raw sugarcane availability. At FY26 sales of ₹2,466 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹6.8 Cr, so roughly ₹534 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 34 days to pay and stock sat for 76 days, about 2.5 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 79 days, shorter than FY21's 226. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 76 days. Customers pay about 34 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 31 days. Together that makes the 79-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹282 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹240 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is building a little beyond replacing what wears out. Work still in progress is ₹42.0 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: neither the daily cycle nor new spending is soaking up the cash, so the picture is fairly clean. ## What is Andhra Sugars' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Andhra Sugars Ltd's P/E is 9.4×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 47% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 9.9×, over 11 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. The P/E here, and its history, use a profit figure that can leave out one-off items, so it can differ from a P/E worked out on the quarterly results. Those results' earnings per share for the four quarters to Jun 2026 add up to ₹7.78. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +221.5% while the price moved +0.0%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved −8.8% a year; about −6.8% a year came from earnings growth and about −2.0 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less); over 10 years the price moved +5.7% a year; about +9.5% a year came from earnings growth and about −3.8 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is about average against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## What growth does the Andhra Sugars share price assume? Worked out from its price on 27 August 2026, Andhra Sugars Ltd's share price assumed profit growth of about 5.8% a year. Over the past 10 years its profit actually grew 4.5% a year. Today its P/E is 9.4×, lower than 53% of its own last 11 years. This is a one-day reading, taken on 27 August 2026. Every other number on this page, the multiple included, uses the latest price as of 3 November 2026. A higher price assumes more growth and a lower price less, so it changes whenever the price changes, and this page does not update it between measurements. ## Is the Andhra Sugars business getting better or worse? Andhra Sugars Ltd's business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROCE rising at 6.4%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. The latest quarter’s profit includes a one-off item bigger than the normal business, so the profit line is shown but does not count in this reading. ## What is the Andhra Sugars story, and has it been checked? Andhra Sugars Ltd's story is not scored yet against the checks our research set on 22 August 2026. Where it sits in its own cycle: EARLY EXPANSION.

Operating profit expanded from 16 Cr in December 2024 to 72 Cr in June 2026 as chemical segment realizations and ethanol integration offset sugar volatility. Five-year cumulative operating cash flow of 1,010 Cr fully funded 585 Cr in capital expenditure while reducing total borrowings from 55 Cr to 1 Cr. What the surface reading misses. The surface reading is: Revenue of 627 Cr in Q1 FY27 represents steady topline performance, up 4.5% YoY from 600 Cr. The research reads it further: Topline stability reflects sustained chemical product throughput and commercial ethanol deliveries offsetting seasonal sugar milling fluctuations. What the surface reading misses. The surface reading is: Operating profit of 72 Cr and OPM of 12% in June 2026 mark the highest quarterly operating profit in 8 quarters. The research reads it further: Margin expansion from 7% in Mar 2026 and 9% in Jun 2025 to 12% indicates operating leverage from captive power allocation to chlor-alkali units and initial ethanol contributions. Lever 2 · Value-added mix: building. Strategic pivot toward industrial chemicals and caustic soda reduces reliance on commoditized sugar milling. What proves it keeps working: Chlor-Alkali and Chemical Product Mix Shift. It stops working if Global caustic soda prices experience severe oversupply from Chinese capacity additions, compressing domestic realizations below cash cost. Lever 1 · Operating leverage: building. Fixed manufacturing costs drop incremental revenue directly to operating profit as utilization expands. What proves it keeps working: Operating Leverage on Captive Industrial Infrastructure. It stops working if Power supply disruptions or raw material shortages force plant utilization below 60% of rated capacity. Lever 4 · Paying down debt: building. Debt reduction to 1 Cr eliminates interest expense and de-risks corporate cash flow. What proves it keeps working: Deleveraging and Complete Interest Elimination. It stops working if Management initiates un-funded speculative debt-financed capital projects. Sources: our stock research file (22 August 2026) · quarterly results through Jun 2026. The story check is re-scored every results season; the record below never changes. ## What is Andhra Sugars management's track record? Through the downturn, management closed unviable sugar units, self-funded capital spending and almost eliminated debt. ### Regulatory and governance record The only serious enforcement hit concerned Rana Sugars, not Andhra Sugars; no company-specific fraud action surfaced. 0.95% Promoter shares pledged Sources: - [motilaloswal.com](https://www.motilaloswal.com/share-market/andhra-sugars-ltd) - [thehindu.com](https://www.thehindu.com/business/markets/sebi-bans-rana-sugars-promoters-others-from-securities-market-for-two-years-imposes-63-crore-fine/article68575837.ece) - [trendlyne.com](https://trendlyne.com/equity/share-holding/81/ANDHRSUGAR/latest/andhra-sugars-ltd) (Checked 30 August 2026.) ## How much does Andhra Sugars earn on its capital? Andhra Sugars Ltd earned a ROCE of 8% in FY26. That is up from a low of 3% in FY15. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 3.9 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 3.5% net margin and 1.13× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 3.5% net margin × 1.13× asset turnover × 1.30× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 5.1% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 8.1% − 12.0% = −3.9 percentage points. The 12.0% is a standard assumption for the cost of capital in India, not an estimate for this company. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The 8.1% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 6.6%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Andhra Sugars have too much debt? Andhra Sugars Ltd has total debt of ₹1.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,771 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.00× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.03 in FY22 to 0.00 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. Why this happened. Under the Operating Leverage Catapult model, quarterly operating profits expanded from 16 Cr in December 2024 to 72 Cr in June 2026 on modest revenue gains of 511 Cr to 627 Cr. Fixed depreciation of approximately 20 Cr to 22 Cr per quarter creates significant profit elasticity as plant utilization rates rise. ## What is the Andhra Sugars shareholding pattern? Promoters raised their stake in Andhra Sugars Ltd by 3.5 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Promoters now own 50.5% of the company. Foreign institutions moved +0.2 points over the same period, to 3.1%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Promoters: +3.5 points over 8 quarters, to 50.5%; Foreign institutions: +0.2 points over 8 quarters, to 3.1%; Domestic institutions: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 0.0%. Why the owners changed: promoters drove it (+3.5 points). They raised their stake step by step. ## How far is Andhra Sugars from balance-sheet trouble? For Andhra Sugars Ltd, the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does Andhra Sugars rank in its industry? 65.4 out of 100, rank 1 of 21 in Sugar, with 96% of the evidence available. Andhra Sugars Ltd scores 65.4 out of 100 against the 21 companies it is compared with in Sugar, ranking 1. Earnings are strong; relative strength in its sector is -3% and the one-year return is -3.3%. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 29.8 + 13.8 + 15.7 + 6.1 = 65.4. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Andhra Sugars compared with?

They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
