A-1 Limited has been appointed as a primary authorised dealer by Ishan Dyes and Chemicals Limited for a significant portion of their sulphur-based chemical requirements. This appointment follows an existing business association where Ishan Dyes supplied materials worth Rs.40 crores to A-1 Limited from February 2026. The dealership covers products such as Sulphuric Acid, Oleum, and Chloro Sulphonic Acid, catering to industries including fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, and petrochemicals. The arrangement is expected to contribute meaningfully to revenue growth in the ongoing financial year FY 2026-27.

Strategic Significance

The partnership adds a high demand sulphur-based chemicals vertical to A-1 Limited's existing portfolio of industrial acids and solvents. Sulphuric acid is a widely consumed industrial chemical globally, with applications across sectors experiencing strong domestic demand growth. The existing business volume of Rs.40 crores, achieved in approximately four months, validates the commercial viability of the relationship and provides a foundation for scaled-up operations under the formal dealership framework.

As a primary authorized dealer, A-1 Limited gains preferential access to Ishan Dyes' production capacity, competitive pricing, and dedicated supply allocation. This strengthens the company's competitive position against unorganized traders. The sulphur-based chemicals portfolio complements A-1 Limited's existing distribution infrastructure, including its captive logistics fleet of 100+ vehicles, allowing it to leverage established customer relationships to cross-sell products.

Key Highlights of the Arrangement

Product Portfolio and Market Context

The dealership encompasses a range of chemicals with specific industrial applications. Sulphuric Acid 98% is used in fertilizer manufacturing and metal processing, while the 70% variant serves water treatment and battery manufacturing. Oleum 23% and 65% are utilized in sulphonation processes and high-strength applications respectively. Chloro Sulphonic Acid caters to pharmaceutical intermediates and dye manufacturing.

India's sulphuric acid market is a key enabler for the domestic fertilizer and pharmaceutical industries, which are priority sectors under the Government of India's Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative. Organized distributors like A-1 Limited are positioned to benefit from the structural shift towards reliable, compliant supply chain partners as the country aims to reduce import dependence in chemicals.

The announcement is made in compliance with Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Ishan Dyes and Chemicals Limited is not a related party of A-1 Limited under Section 2(76) of the Companies Act, 2013.
