A share price tends to move through four phases: moving sideways (stage 1), rising (stage 2), stalling near a high (stage 3) and falling (stage 4). Today Galaxy Surfactants Ltd is in stage 2. The phase helps read everything below.

Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the NIFTY 500, and it has been behind for 1 week running.

Over the last 8.7 years the share price moved +36% while the NIFTY 500 moved +135%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 30 October 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week.

This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row.

Three changes stood out: profit grew again in the June 2026 quarter, best operating margin in 13 quarters and revenue up on a year earlier for 9 quarters in a row.

1. Profit grew again in the June 2026 quarter

   Profit was ₹166 crore, +110.1% on a year earlier (₹79 crore), after 6 quarters of decline.

   Why: Profit rose because the company made much more profit on each tonne it sold, and demand came back in India after reformulation had hurt it.

   Next results: check whether profit per tonne stays near the lower quarterly path management set for the next three quarters.

   From the earnings call on 14 Aug 2026.

2. Best operating margin in 13 quarters

   Operating margin was 14% in the June 2026 quarter, against 10% a year earlier.

   Why: Margin rose because more sales came from higher-value specialty products and the company was stricter on pricing, inventory and costs.

   Next results: check whether the margin holds without help from one-off inventory gains or a sudden finished-product price spike.

   From the earnings call on 14 Aug 2026.

3. Revenue up on a year earlier for 9 quarters in a row

   In the June 2026 quarter revenue was ₹1,782 crore, +39.4% on a year earlier.

   Why: Revenue rose because selling prices were higher, partly because export freight costs more than doubled and the mix of product forms changed.

   Next results: check that demand in India holds and Egypt supply stays steady, with no new geopolitical shock.

   From the earnings call on 14 Aug 2026.

From the call for April to June 2026, 14 August 2026.

When Galaxy Surfactants reports July to September 2026, these are the 4 checks that show whether the story is still on course. First: Volume momentum to sustain through the festive season - check India demand, Egypt supply continuity and absence of another geopolitical shock.

Galaxy Surfactants is not on any of our India lists this week.

Galaxy Surfactants Ltd earned ₹166 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +110.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹267 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 10.0% a year on average. That is 9.3% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹79.0 Cr.

Net profit is what is left after every cost, interest and tax. Earnings per share, dividends and book value all grow from it.

For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹267 Cr (−12.5% on the year before).

Why profit moved: revenue changed +39.4% on a year earlier and the margin moved +4.0 percentage points. Most of the change came from keeping more of each sale.

On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +15.0% and revenue +26.6%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth.

Galaxy Surfactants Ltd reported ₹1,782 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +39.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 9th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown 11.3% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹5,245 Cr.

Revenue is everything the company billed its customers in the period.

The last four reported quarters add to ₹5,752 Cr.

FY26 revenue was ₹5,245 Cr, +24.3% on the year before.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +26.6% on average, against 11.3% 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 +27.0%, against +22.6% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew +15.7%, against +7.4% a year (accelerating).

Galaxy Surfactants Ltd's operating margin was 14.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 4.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 12 years it has been between 9.0% and 16.0%. The latest quarter is within that range.

Operating margin is what is left from every ₹100 of sales after the costs of running the business, before interest and tax. It shows pricing power and cost control.

Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +4.3 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +3.0 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged.

Over the last 3 years, 146% of Galaxy Surfactants Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹333 Cr of operating cash against ₹267 Cr of profit. After ₹186 Cr of spending on assets, ₹147 Cr was left over as free cash.

The profit and loss account shows what was earned. The cash-flow statement shows the cash that actually came in. Comparing operating cash flow with profit is one of the best checks that a profit is real.

Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year.

Why 146% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle stayed about the same between FY21 and FY26, so the cash follows profit, not the cycle.

What to look at next: the bigger use of cash is spending on new assets, at 1.9× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building.

Galaxy Surfactants Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 66 days in FY26, down from 72 days in FY21. It spent ₹626 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 52 days to pay, and stock sits for 76 days on average.

Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid. Debtor days: how long customers take to pay. Inventory days: how long stock sits. The cash cycle: the whole loop, in days of sales.

At FY26 sales of ₹5,245 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹14.4 Cr, so roughly ₹948 Cr is tied up in the business at any time.

FY26: customers took 52 days to pay and stock sat for 76 days, about 2.5 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 66 days, shorter than FY21's 72.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 76 days. Customers pay about 52 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 62 days. Together that makes the 66-day cycle.

Spending on assets: ₹626 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹333 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 ₹181 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.

Galaxy Surfactants Ltd's P/E is 22.1×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 11% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 26.7×, over 8.7 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth.

P/E is the share price divided by a year's profit per share: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee of yearly profit.

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 ₹99.79.

Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −12.3% while the price moved +1.4%. 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 −6.0% a year; about +2.4% a year came from earnings growth and about −8.4 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.

Galaxy Surfactants Ltd's business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROCE rising at 17.7%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures.

Every business is somewhere on a path of getting better or worse, and this section names where. The last 12 quarters of growth in revenue, profit and earnings per share, plus the return the business earns on its capital, are read as lines. Getting worse: the lines are falling. Turning around: a low point has just formed and the last few quarters are rising from it. Getting better: the rise from the low has lasted. Growing steadily: steady growth with healthy returns. Slowing from a peak: still high, but slowing. When the lines disagree the result is mixed; too little history means no reading. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the steady yearly rate that would turn the starting value into the latest one. It is the fairest way to compare growth over different periods. If the 1-year figure is much bigger than the 10-year one, recent growth is running faster than the long-run trend. A dash means there is no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss, where a growth rate means nothing.

Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label.

Compound annual growth rate (%)

Compound annual growth rate over each period, %. Revenue, profit and EPS come from yearly figures; the share price row is price growth over the same periods. A dash means no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss.
