Paradeep Phosphates is on one of our India lists: Small & mid cap stocks. [Small & mid cap stocks Size rank in India: 474](https://www.sectoralpha.in/small-cap-stocks-india) ## Is Paradeep Phosphates profitable? Paradeep Phosphates Ltd earned ₹121 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, −64.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹996 Cr. Over 7 years profit has grown 30.0% a year on average. That is 1.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹342 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹996 Cr (+50.5% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +7.2% on a year earlier and the margin moved −4.0 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −15.7% and revenue +17.6%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Paradeep Phosphates make, and is it growing? Paradeep Phosphates Ltd reported ₹7,364 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, +7.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 9th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 7 years it has grown 25.9% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹21,826 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹23,939 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹21,826 Cr, +28.7% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +17.6% on average, against 25.9% 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 +16.4%, against +42.2% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over); profit over the last 12 months grew −18.1%, against +47.6% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Paradeep Phosphates keep? Paradeep Phosphates Ltd's operating margin was 6.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 4.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 years it has been between 6.0% and 11.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −4.0 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −4.6 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Paradeep Phosphates' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 118% of Paradeep Phosphates Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 its operations used ₹1,012 Cr of cash, against ₹996 Cr of profit. After ₹1,075 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹2,087 Cr: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 118% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 37 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 4.0× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Paradeep Phosphates' cash go? Paradeep Phosphates Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 115 days in FY26, up from 78 days in FY21. It spent ₹3,839 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 80 days to pay, and stock sits for 105 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹21,826 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹59.8 Cr, so roughly ₹6,877 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 80 days to pay and stock sat for 105 days, about 3.5 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 115 days, longer than FY21's 78. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 105 days. Customers pay about 80 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 70 days. Together that makes the 115-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹3,839 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹958 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 ₹424 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 Paradeep Phosphates' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Paradeep Phosphates Ltd's P/E is 16.1×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 45% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 16.9×, over 4.4 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 Sep 2026 add up to ₹8.20. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +18.2% while the price moved −19.6%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved +27.8% a year; about +77.5% a year came from earnings growth and about −49.7 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. The PEG ratio and its quarterly curve, which only the second data source has, are not shown on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 58% on reported income across 15 comparable periods. When two sources disagree on a figure, we leave it out on purpose. The gap is a choice, not missing data. ## Is the Paradeep Phosphates business getting better or worse? Paradeep Phosphates Ltd's business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROCE rising at 15.0%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 9 quarters of 4 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. The return figures here are yearly, not quarterly. They show level and direction only; they can support the growth lines but never decide the reading alone. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## How much does Paradeep Phosphates earn on its capital? Paradeep Phosphates Ltd earned a ROCE of 15% in FY26. That is up from a low of 7% in FY24. We cannot compare its return on capital used with its cost of capital from the data we have. It comes from a 4.6% net margin and 1.22× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 4.6% net margin × 1.22× asset turnover × 2.64× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 14.8% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The quarterly return lines and the return-on-capital-used (ROIC) line, which only the second data source has, are not shown on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 58% on reported income across 15 comparable periods. When two sources disagree on a figure, we leave it out on purpose. The gap is a choice, not missing data. ## Does Paradeep Phosphates have too much debt? Paradeep Phosphates Ltd had ₹6,906 Cr of borrowings against ₹6,783 Cr of equity in FY26, so its debt is 1.02× its equity. Its operating profit is 4 times its interest bill. Over 5 years borrowings went from ₹1,251 Cr to ₹6,906 Cr. Over the last 3 of those years it spent ₹3,839 Cr on assets. Part of the spending on assets is being paid for with borrowed money. The total-debt and debt-to-equity series, which only the second data source has, are not shown on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 58% on reported income across 15 comparable periods. When two sources disagree on a figure, we leave it out on purpose. The gap is a choice, not missing data. ## What is the Paradeep Phosphates shareholding pattern? Domestic institutions cut their stake in Paradeep Phosphates Ltd by 6.8 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Domestic institutions now own 20.3% of the company. Foreign institutions moved +2.7 points over the same period, to 4.8%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Domestic institutions: −6.8 points over 8 quarters, to 20.3%; Foreign institutions: +2.7 points over 8 quarters, to 4.8%; Promoters: +1.8 points over 8 quarters, to 57.9%. Why the owners changed: foreign institutions moved +2.7 points and domestic institutions −6.8 points over 8 quarters, while promoters moved +1.8 points. One group of institutions took over shares from the other; it is not a change of mind by the people running the company. ## How far is Paradeep Phosphates from balance-sheet trouble? For Paradeep Phosphates 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 Paradeep Phosphates rank in its industry? 44.5 out of 100, rank 12 of 15 in Fertilisers, with 67% of the evidence available. Paradeep Phosphates Ltd scores 44.5 out of 100 against the 15 companies it is compared with in Fertilisers, ranking 12. 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: 11.9 + 10.9 + 11.2 + 10.5 = 44.5. 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 Paradeep Phosphates compared with? Paradeep Phosphates ranks 12 of 15 Fertilisers companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 44.5 out of 100. 1.

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.
