Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
GACL reported Q1 FY27 revenue of Rs 1,244.9 Cr, up 12.6% YoY. Standalone PAT surged to Rs 53.4 Cr vs Rs 7.8 Cr a year ago. Consolidated PAT was Rs 55 Cr vs a loss of Rs 13.8 Cr. EPS rose to Rs 7.27 from Rs 1.06. Board approved a new HCL synthesis unit at Dahej (about Rs 55 Cr) to boost chlorine use and caustic soda output, plus a Vision 2047 plan. Auditors flagged an emphasis of matter on Rs 16.6 Cr differential energy charges to GUVNL.
Strong profit recovery with standalone PAT up nearly 7x YoY. Capacity expansion and Vision 2047 signal long-term growth. Energy charge overhang remains.
