Zuari Agro Chemicals has paid no dividend on the NSE since 1 April 2021, the start of the period we checked. Not in its latest year. Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd paid out 0% of its profit as dividends in FY26. It did pay a dividend in 2 of its last 13 reported years, so there is a history but no current dividend. (From the NSE corporate-actions record, read 4 November 2026.) ## Which stock lists is Zuari Agro Chemicals on? Zuari Agro Chemicals is not on any of our India lists this week. ## Is Zuari Agro Chemicals profitable? Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd earned ₹119 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −6.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹982 Cr. That is 19.3% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹127 Cr. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹982 Cr (+325.1% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −50.6% 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 +138.4% and revenue −44.3%. 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 Zuari Agro Chemicals make, and is it growing? Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd reported ₹615 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −50.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 10 years it has grown −8.3% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹3,200 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,569 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹3,200 Cr, −27.9% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −44.3% on average, against −8.3% 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 −44.0%, against −24.3% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over); profit over the last 12 months grew +197.0%, against +119.6% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Zuari Agro Chemicals keep? Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd's operating margin was 10.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 1.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 13 years it has been between −11.0% and 10.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −1.7 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −13.6 points. So the drop 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 Zuari Agro Chemicals' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 86% of Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹203 Cr of operating cash against ₹982 Cr of profit. After −₹654 Cr of spending on assets, ₹857 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 86% 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: it has been selling more assets than it buys. The next section shows those figures. ## Where does Zuari Agro Chemicals' cash go? Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 16 days in FY26, down from 25 days in FY21. Over the last 3 years it sold more assets than it bought, by ₹1,544 Cr. Customers take 10 days to pay, and stock sits for 45 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹3,200 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹8.8 Cr, so roughly ₹140 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 10 days to pay and stock sat for 45 days, about 1.5 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 16 days, shorter than FY21's 25. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 45 days. Customers pay about 10 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 39 days. Together that makes the 16-day cycle. Over the last 3 years, money from selling assets was ₹1,544 Cr more than it spent on new ones. Work still in progress is ₹0.0 Cr (FY26). In short: assets are being sold, not built, so this cash is not going into new capacity. ## What is Zuari Agro Chemicals' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd's P/E is 2.5×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 7% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 4.7×, over 8.4 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. 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 +458.2% while the price moved −27.9%. 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 +10.1% a year; about +73.2% a year came from earnings growth and about −63.1 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 Zuari Agro Chemicals business getting better or worse? Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd's business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROCE rising at 19.5%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. ## How much does Zuari Agro Chemicals earn on its capital? Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd earned a ROCE of 16% in FY26. That is up from a low of −5% in FY20. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 5.8 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 30.7% net margin and 0.99× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 30.7% net margin × 0.99× asset turnover × 1.55× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 47.1% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 6.2% − 12.0% = −5.8 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 6.2% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 7.5%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Zuari Agro Chemicals have too much debt? Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd has total debt of ₹642 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹2,090 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.31× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 3.13 in FY22 to 0.31 in FY26. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Zuari Agro Chemicals shareholding pattern? No group of Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd's owners changed its stake by a full percentage point over the last two years. Promoters moved +0.0 points over the same period, to 65.2%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Foreign institutions: +0.7 points over 8 quarters, to 1.9%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 65.2%; Domestic institutions: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 0.1%. ## How far is Zuari Agro Chemicals from balance-sheet trouble? For Zuari Agro 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 Zuari Agro Chemicals rank in its industry? 53.0 out of 100, rank 6 of 15 in Fertilisers, with 96% of the evidence available. Zuari Agro Chemicals Ltd scores 53.0 out of 100 against the 15 companies it is compared with in Fertilisers, ranking 6. 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: 21 + 10.5 + 19.9 + 1.6 = 53. 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 Zuari Agro Chemicals compared with? Zuari Agro Chemicals ranks 6 of 15 Fertilisers companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 53.0 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.
