Deepak Fertilisers Q4 FY26 Results: PAT Drops 50% To ₹139 Crore; Revenue Rises 13% To ₹3,011 Crore

Deepak Fertilisers and Petrochemicals Corporation Ltd (DFPCL) reported a mixed set of earnings in Q4FY26. Revenue growth remained healthy. However, profitability came under pressure due to multiple reasons.

For Q4 FY26, the company posted consolidated revenue of ₹3,011 crore, a 12.9% increase on a year-on-year basis when compared to ₹2,667 crore in the same quarter last year. Growth was supported by strong volume expansion in Technical Ammonium Nitrate (TAN) and Crop Nutrition Business (CNB), despite a challenging operating environment.

On the National Stock Exchange, Deepak Fertilisers and Petrochemicals Corporation's share price decreased by 3.24% to ₹1,401.40 at 3:06 PM on 29 May 2026.

EBITDA Margins Contract Amid Cost Pressures

Operating performance weakened during the quarter. Operating EBITDA came in at ₹354 crore, down 26% YoY from ₹480 crore in Q4 FY25. EBITDA margin narrowed sharply to 11.8%, compared with 18.0% a year ago, reflecting margin pressure across segments. The company said profitability was impacted by the gradual pass-through of war-led raw material inflation, particularly in fertilisers, along with inadequate subsidy support.

Deepak Fertilisers reported profit after tax (PAT) of ₹139 crore in Q4 FY26, a decline of nearly 50% compared with ₹278 crore in Q4 FY25. On a sequential basis, PAT was down around 1.5% from ₹141 crore in Q3 FY26. PAT margin for the quarter stood at 4.6%, compared with 10.2% in the year-ago period.

FY26 Performance And Growth Outlook

For the full financial year FY26, DFPCL reported consolidated revenue of ₹11,506 crore, up 12% YoY. Full-year EBITDA stood at ₹1,684 crore, down 13%, while net profit came at ₹739 crore, lower by 22% compared with ₹945 crore in FY25. The company noted that adjusted for the one-time tax credit booked in FY25, the annual PAT decline was around 18%.

The board has recommended a dividend of ₹10 per equity share (100% on the face value of ₹10) for FY26, subject to shareholder approval.
