(From the NSE corporate-actions record, read 4 November 2026.) ## Which stock lists is Kothari Petrochemicals on? Kothari Petrochemicals is not on any of our India lists this week. ## Is Kothari Petrochemicals profitable? Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd earned ₹17.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −5.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹72.0 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 23.1% a year on average. That is 11.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹18.0 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹72.0 Cr (+9.1% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −9.3% on a year earlier and the margin moved +1.0 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +14.8% and revenue −2.7%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra rupee of revenue adds more to profit. ## How much revenue does Kothari Petrochemicals make, and is it growing? Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd reported ₹146 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −9.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 10 years it has grown 10.8% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹591 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹577 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹591 Cr, +2.4% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −2.7% on average, against 10.8% 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 −3.0%, against −1.9% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +12.5%, against +3.7% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Kothari Petrochemicals keep? Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd's operating margin was 15.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 1.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 14 years it has been between 3.0% and 16.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +0.7 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +4.4 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. As noted under valuation: when margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so a low multiple can mislead. ## Is Kothari Petrochemicals' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 105% of Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹81.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹72.0 Cr of profit. After ₹18.0 Cr of spending on assets, ₹63.0 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 105% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 30 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 4.9× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Kothari Petrochemicals' cash go? Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 30 days in FY26, up from 0 days in FY21. It spent ₹123 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 38 days to pay, and stock sits for 27 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹591 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹1.6 Cr, so roughly ₹49.0 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 38 days to pay and stock sat for 27 days, about 0.9 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 30 days, longer than FY21's 0. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 27 days. Customers pay about 38 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 34 days. Together that makes the 30-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹123 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹25.0 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 ₹8.0 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 Kothari Petrochemicals' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd's P/E is 9.5×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 20% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 13.2×, 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. Keep one thing in mind: margins are the best this company has ever reported. A multiple that looks low against its own past can mislead when profit is at a record. If margins fall back, today's multiple is higher than it looks. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +10.1% while the price moved −18.1%. 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 +19.1% a year; about +20.4% a year came from earnings growth and about −1.3 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less); over 10 years the price moved +17.0% a year; about +26.5% a year came from earnings growth and about −9.5 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 Kothari Petrochemicals business getting better or worse? Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd's business is growing steadily. Profit and EPS growth have stayed positive throughout, and ROCE is steady at 26.8%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: steady growth with healthy returns is how a business compounds over time. ## How much does Kothari Petrochemicals earn on its capital? Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd earned a ROCE of 29% in FY26. That is up from a low of 12% in FY17. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 7.7 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 12.2% net margin and 1.34× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 12.2% net margin × 1.34× asset turnover × 1.19× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 19.5% 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: 19.7% − 12.0% = +7.7 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. A gap this wide means each rupee put back into the business creates more than a rupee of value. The 19.7% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 21.9%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Kothari Petrochemicals have too much debt? Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd has total debt of ₹2.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹372 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.01× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.08 in FY22 to 0.01 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Kothari Petrochemicals shareholding pattern? Promoters raised their stake in Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd by 1.2 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Promoters now own 72.2% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −0.3 points over the same period, to 0.1%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Promoters: +1.2 points over 8 quarters, to 72.2%; Foreign institutions: −0.3 points over 8 quarters, to 0.1%; Domestic institutions: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 0.1%. Why the owners changed: promoters drove it (+1.2 points). They raised their stake step by step. ## How far is Kothari Petrochemicals from balance-sheet trouble? For Kothari Petrochemicals 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 Kothari Petrochemicals rank in its industry? 51.1 out of 100, rank 5 of 7 in Petrochem - Polymers, with 96% of the evidence available. Kothari Petrochemicals Ltd scores 51.1 out of 100 against the 7 companies it is compared with in Petrochem - Polymers, ranking 5. The valuation scores well, but earnings are not improving yet, so the business does not back up the low multiple so far. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 9.8 + 20.8 + 16.5 + 4 = 51.1. 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 Kothari Petrochemicals compared with? Kothari Petrochemicals ranks 5 of 7 Petrochem - Polymers companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 51.1 out of 100. 1.

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.
