Product Mix and Operational Drivers
Revenue from the Non-Phthalic business stood at ₹49 crore, led by an improvement in overall realizations in Di-ethyl Phthalate (DEP) and Maleic Anhydride (MAN). Exports contributed approximately 10% of total revenue during Q1FY27, reflecting continued progress in expanding international presence. IGPL remains India's largest single-site PAN manufacturer with ~50% domestic market share and the sole domestic producer of MAN.
Forward-Looking Capacity Expansion
The company is advancing its downstream integration strategy to diversify revenue mix. The plasticizer plant at the Taloja complex is expected to start production in Q2FY27, following mechanical completion in March 2026. Additionally, the Compressed Biogas (CBG) project, which converts organic waste to biogas, is targeted for mechanical completion in Q2FY27 and production start in Q3FY27. These initiatives aim to reduce single-product dependence and expand the earnings base over the coming years.
Subsidiary and Auditor Notes
The consolidated results include four subsidiaries: IGPL International Limited, IGPL Energy Limited, IG Biofuels Limited, and IGPL Charitable Foundation. The auditor’s report noted that the interim financial information of these subsidiaries, which reflect a total revenue of ₹21.12 lakh and a net loss of ₹477.11 lakh for the quarter, was not reviewed by their respective auditors but certified by the holding company’s management. Management stated that these figures are not material to the Group. M S K A & Associates LLP and SMMP & Company confirmed that nothing came to their attention to suggest the statements do not comply with Ind AS 34 or contain material misstatements.
