Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals is on one of our India lists: Dividend stocks. [Dividend stocks Regular dividend yield (%): 3.15](https://www.sectoralpha.in/dividend-stocks-india)

## Is Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals profitable? Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd earned ₹55.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter. The full FY26 year was a loss of ₹2.0 Cr. That is 4.4% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost ₹14.0 Cr. 8 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. ## How much revenue does Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals make, and is it growing? Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd reported ₹1,245 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +12.7% 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 8.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹4,358 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹4,497 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹4,358 Cr, +7.0% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +7.0% on average, against 8.1% 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 +7.1%, against +7.8% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals keep? Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd's operating margin was 18.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 9.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 11 years it has been between 0.8% and 35.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +9.2 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +6.4 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 186% of Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹406 Cr of operating cash against −₹2.0 Cr of profit. After ₹216 Cr of spending on assets, ₹190 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 186% 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: 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 Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals' cash go? Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 25 days in FY26, up from 21 days in FY21. It spent ₹854 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 34 days to pay, and stock sits for 102 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹4,358 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹11.9 Cr, so roughly ₹298 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 34 days to pay and stock sat for 102 days, about 3.4 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 25 days, longer than FY21's 21. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 102 days. Customers pay about 34 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 111 days. Together that makes the 25-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹854 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹1,183 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is spending about what it takes to replace what wears out, or less. Work still in progress is ₹122 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 Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd's P/E is 61.5×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 93% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 12.2×, over 9.2 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved −6.4% a year; about −19.5% a year came from earnings growth and about +13.1 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). 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 high against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals business getting better or worse? Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd's business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. 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. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals earn on its capital? Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd earned a ROCE of 1% in FY26. That is up from a low of −4% in FY24. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 11.3 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 0.0% net margin and 0.58× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 0.0% net margin × 0.58× asset turnover × 1.45× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 0.0% 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: 0.7% − 12.0% = −11.3 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. ## Does Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals have too much debt? Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd has total debt of ₹845 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹5,191 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.16× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.10 in FY22 to 0.16 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals shareholding pattern? Foreign institutions raised their stake in Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd by 1.3 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Foreign institutions now own 3.3% of the company. Domestic institutions moved −1.1 points over the same period, to 2.7%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Foreign institutions: +1.3 points over 8 quarters, to 3.3%; Domestic institutions: −1.1 points over 8 quarters, to 2.7%; Promoters: +1.0 points over 8 quarters, to 47.3%. Why the owners changed: foreign institutions drove it (+1.3 points), with the other side taken by domestic institutions (−1.1 points). They raised their stake step by step. ## How far is Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals from balance-sheet trouble? For Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals 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 Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals rank in its industry? 55.5 out of 100, rank 2 of 7 in Chemicals - Inorganic - Caustic Soda/Soda Ash, with 81% of the evidence available. Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd scores 55.5 out of 100 against the 7 companies it is compared with in Chemicals - Inorganic - Caustic Soda/Soda Ash, ranking 2. 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: 23.1 + 8.6 + 13.5 + 10.3 = 55.5. 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 Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals compared with?

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.
