The Board of Directors includes one female director, representing 12.50% of the board. The company engaged with approximately 3 lakh farmers through outreach programs such as ‘Seed To Harvest’. No fines, penalties, or material regulatory actions were reported during the fiscal year. The company also disclosed zero complaints related to sexual harassment, discrimination, or child labour.

Chambal Fertilisers and Chemicals Limited has scheduled its Forty First Annual General Meeting (AGM) for Tuesday, September 1, 2026, to adopt financial statements for FY26, which reported a revenue rise to ₹20,793.66 crore, and declare a final dividend of ₹6 per equity share. The meeting will be conducted via video conferencing or other audio visual means (OAVM), with remote e-voting open from August 28 to August 31, 2026. This agenda follows a strong fiscal year where the company expanded its complex fertiliser segment significantly, driving overall top-line growth despite slight declines in urea production volumes.

AGM Agenda and Key Resolutions

Shareholders will transact ordinary and special business at the AGM. The Board has recommended the re-appointment of Mr. Chandra Shekhar Nopany, who retires by rotation, and seeks approval for the continuation of Mrs. Rita Menon as an Independent Director after she attains the age of 75 years, in compliance with Regulation 17(1A) of the SEBI Listing Regulations. Additionally, shareholders must ratify the remuneration of ₹1,55,000 payable to M/s. K. G. Goyal & Associates for conducting the cost audit for FY ending March 31, 2027.

Financial Performance: FY26 Highlights

The company’s standalone revenue from operations grew to ₹20,793.66 crore in FY26, up from ₹16,646.20 crore in the previous year. Profit before tax increased to ₹2,574.69 crore from ₹2,459.03 crore, while profit for the year rose to ₹1,949.67 crore from ₹1,656.79 crore. The complex fertilisers segment was a key growth driver, with revenue surging to ₹7,025.14 crore from ₹2,561.41 crore, fueled by higher imports and sales of DAP and NPK fertilisers.

Dividend Payout and Record Date

The Board recommended a final dividend of ₹6 per equity share of ₹10 each, bringing the total dividend for FY26 to ₹11 per share when combined with the interim dividend of ₹5 declared earlier. This total payout involves an outgo of ₹440.72 crore, subject to tax deduction at source. The record date for determining dividend eligibility is fixed as Tuesday, August 11, 2026. Shareholders are advised to update their PAN and bank details with the Registrar and Share Transfer Agent, KFin Technologies Limited, to ensure smooth electronic payment.

Operational and Strategic Updates

Urea production remained robust at 33.70 lakh MT, though slightly lower than the previous year due to planned maintenance at the Gadepan-II plant and gas availability issues linked to the West Asia conflict. Meanwhile, the brownfield Technical Ammonium Nitrate (TAN) project at Gadepan is nearing completion, with a capacity of 2,40,000 MTPA. The company’s joint venture, Indo Maroc Phosphore S.A. – IMACID, reported revenue of Moroccan Dirham 4,931.37 Million (₹4,699.60 Crore) but saw a decline in profit after tax to Moroccan Dirham 405.49 Million due to lower margins.

What the Numbers Show

The significant expansion in the complex fertilisers segment, which nearly tripled its revenue contribution, offsets the modest decline in urea production volumes. This shift indicates a successful diversification strategy, reducing reliance on the regulated urea market. However, the drop in IMACID’s profit despite higher turnover highlights margin pressures in the phosphoric acid business, suggesting that volume growth alone may not sustain profitability without favorable pricing dynamics.
