## What did Best Agrolife management say on the latest results call? On the call for April to June 2026, held on 31 July 2026, Best Agrolife's management guided: July to September 2026 sales and gross margins expected to continue in line with Q1, with higher seasonal sales. > “From here, our plan is to easily achieve growth of 10.0%-15.0% each year. There could be a year in which growth is somewhat higher and then another year in which it is somewhat lower, but on average, CAGR should be anywhere between 10.0% and 15.0%”
> Vikas Jain, CFO, on the call for April to June 2026

### What management guided

- Demand for herbicides, insecticides, fungicides and PGR expected to improve from Q2 as sowing and crop activity progress. - Warden Extra and Tricolor Extra expected to contribute meaningfully in H2 FY27. - Patented products expected to remain above 60.0% and generally within 60.0%-70.0% of branded sales; another Q&A answer described 60.0%-65.0% as the steady ratio. - No further FY27 launches planned after 3 already completed; pipeline launches may begin in January-February or next year, subject to registrations. Management’s own plans and goals, from our notes of the call. A plan is not a result. Source: [the call transcript](https://files.tijoristack.ai/concall/transcript/11186-31-Jul-2026.pdf).

## What to watch in Best Agrolife's next results? When Best Agrolife reports October to December 2026, these are the 4 checks that show whether the story is still on course. First: July to September 2026 sales and gross margins should track Q1 as deferred monsoon purchases convert into demand; check whether the expected seasonal recovery appears in reported revenue. - What to check (from the call)
- July to September 2026 sales and gross margins should track Q1 as deferred monsoon purchases convert into demand; check whether the expected seasonal recovery appears in reported revenue. - Rainfall coverage, sowing and southern reservoir inflows will determine whether Q3/Q4 demand risk eases; management's outlook remains explicitly weather-dependent. - Sales returns expected from September-October against the ₹60 crore provision and 20.0% assumption; monitor whether Q3/Q4 volatility is contained without a further margin hit. - Patented mix should remain within 60.0%-70.0% of branded sales, while PGR demand should improve from Q2 and Warden Extra and Tricolor Extra should gain H2 traction. ## Which stock lists is Best Agrolife on? Best Agrolife is not on any of our India lists this week. ## Is Best Agrolife profitable? Best Agrolife Ltd earned ₹57.0 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, +46.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 2nd quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹9.0 Cr. That is 14.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹39.0 Cr. 6 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹9.0 Cr (−87.1% on the year before). ## How much revenue does Best Agrolife make, and is it growing? Best Agrolife Ltd reported ₹407 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, −21.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 9 years it has grown 29.0% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹1,257 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹1,162 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹1,257 Cr, −30.7% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −21.6% on average, against 29.0% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew −19.6%, against −17.7% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +269.2%, against +13.9% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Best Agrolife keep? Best Agrolife Ltd's operating margin was 25.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 10.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 years it has been between −1.4% and 18.0%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +9.7 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +11.9 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Best Agrolife's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 195% of Best Agrolife Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹97.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹9.0 Cr of profit. After ₹19.0 Cr of spending on assets, ₹78.0 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 195% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 382 days longer between FY21 and FY26, so more of each rupee of profit waits in the business before it arrives. What to look at next: the bigger use of cash is spending on new assets, at 2.1× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Best Agrolife's cash go? Best Agrolife Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 430 days in FY26, up from 48 days in FY21. It spent ₹253 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 142 days to pay, and stock sits for 564 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹1,257 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹3.4 Cr, so roughly ₹1,481 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 142 days to pay and stock sat for 564 days, about 18.6 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 430 days, longer than FY21's 48. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 564 days. Customers pay about 142 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 277 days. Together that makes the 430-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹253 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹118 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is building well beyond replacing what wears out. Work still in progress is ₹1.0 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Best Agrolife's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Best Agrolife Ltd's P/E is 10.5×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 13% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 21.1×, over 5.1 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −87.3% while the price moved −34.7%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved −31.0% a year; about −9.4% a year came from earnings growth and about −21.6 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 low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Best Agrolife business getting better or worse? Best Agrolife Ltd's business is getting better. Profit growth hit its low 8 quarters ago at −84.8% and has recovered to +269.2%, with ROCE steady at 11.5%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: a lasting rise from a low is what this page is built to show. ## How much does Best Agrolife earn on its capital? Best Agrolife Ltd earned a ROCE of 5% in FY26. That is up from a low of 0% in FY18. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 3.1 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 0.7% net margin and 0.75× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 0.7% net margin × 0.75× asset turnover × 2.19× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 1.1% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 8.9% − 12.0% = −3.1 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 8.9% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 6.4%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Best Agrolife have too much debt? Best Agrolife Ltd has total debt of ₹442 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹769 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.57× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.82 in FY22 to 0.57 in FY26. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Best Agrolife shareholding pattern? No group of Best Agrolife Ltd's owners changed its stake by a full percentage point over the last two years. Foreign institutions moved +0.4 points over the same period, to 5.5%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Domestic institutions: −0.6 points over 8 quarters, to 2.1%; Foreign institutions: +0.4 points over 8 quarters, to 5.5%; Promoters: +0.3 points over 8 quarters, to 50.4%. ## How far is Best Agrolife from balance-sheet trouble? For Best Agrolife 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 Best Agrolife rank in its industry? 42.0 out of 100, rank 19 of 25 in Pesticides/Agrochemicals, with 90% of the evidence available. Best Agrolife Ltd scores 42.0 out of 100 against the 25 companies it is compared with in Pesticides/Agrochemicals, ranking 19. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 16.8 + 10.2 + 10.8 + 4.2 = 42. 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 Best Agrolife compared with?

Missing figures are not scored as bad. 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.
