✓ Strengths

• Profit has grown more than four times in two years, from Rs 18.13 crore in FY2024 to Rs 43.57 crore in FY2025 and Rs 83.12 crore in FY2026.
• Sales have grown steadily, from Rs 887.56 crore in FY2024 to Rs 1,015.54 crore in FY2025 and Rs 1,237.85 crore in FY2026.
• EBITDA more than doubled over the same period, from Rs 60.53 crore to Rs 139.32 crore.
• The product range is very wide at more than 150 chemicals, spread across five different end industries, so it does not depend on one sector.
• The customer base is large and reputed, with about 1,600 customers including Alembic Pharmaceuticals, Lubrizol India, Rossari Biotech, Clean Science and Croda India.
• It exports to 69 countries and is certified as a 3 Star Export House, with distribution across Asia Pacific, the Americas and Europe.
• It has a long record of more than 30 years and two plants with a combined capacity of 98,644 tonnes a year.
• RoCE was 22.43% and RoNW was 18.53% in FY2026.

⚠ Risks

• The P/E and EPS are not stated in the data available to us, so the issue cannot be compared with chemical peers on earnings from here.
• The profit margin is thin at 6.74%, which is low for a company describing itself as a specialty chemicals maker.
• Very little of the money is going into the business. Only Rs 60 crore of the Rs 500 crore issue is earmarked for repaying borrowings, with the rest to general corporate purposes and to the selling shareholders.
• Borrowing has gone up every year, from Rs 82.07 crore in FY2024 to Rs 101.05 crore in FY2025 and Rs 110.06 crore in FY2026.
• Raw material prices drive this business. Acetone and phosphorus feedstock are linked to crude and to global chemical cycles, and a sharp rise cannot always be passed on.
• Both plants are in Maharashtra, at Khopoli and Mahad, so there is regional concentration, and chemical plants carry pollution control and environmental compliance risk.
• Exporting to 69 countries brings currency risk and exposure to anti-dumping duties and trade rules in those markets.
• This is a fresh issue combined with an offer for sale, and promoter holding falls from 89.2% to 77.51% after the issue.
