Gujarat Alkalies and Chemicals Ltd reported standalone revenue of Rs. 4,35,808 Lakhs for FY2026, up 7% from Rs. 4,07,291 Lakhs in FY2025. Standalone profit after tax grew 31.7% to Rs. 2,084 Lakhs from Rs. 1,582 Lakhs. The Board recommended a dividend of Rs. 17.70 per share (177%) for FY2026. The company also approved setting up a 5000 TPA High Purity Grade Hydrogen Peroxide Plant at Dahej at Rs. 67 Crores, expected to contribute Rs. 42 Crores to annual revenue in 18 months. On a consolidated basis, the company reported a net loss of Rs. 241 Lakhs (vs loss of Rs. 6,512 Lakhs in FY2025), largely due to the JV GACL-NALCO incurring Rs. 3,868.72 Lakhs loss. Auditors issued unmodified (clean) opinions.
The 177% dividend is positive for shareholders and signals management confidence. The standalone PAT growth of 31.7% indicates improving profitability, though the consolidated loss due to JV drag is a concern. The expansion into electronic grade hydrogen peroxide positions the company for growth in semiconductor and solar sectors.
