AI summary

IG Petrochemicals, India's largest Phthalic Anhydride (PAN) maker with ~50% market share, shared its Q3 FY26 investor presentation. Revenue fell to Rs 471.3 crore (from Rs 566.7 crore YoY) and the company slipped to a loss with PAT of Rs -7.2 crore versus a profit of Rs 27.7 crore a year ago. EBITDA margin collapsed to 3.3% from 9.6% YoY as management acknowledged 'compressed margins' in PAN. For 9M FY26, revenue dropped to Rs 1,424 crore and the company posted a loss of Rs 14 crore versus a profit of Rs 91.5 crore last year. Capacity expansion is on track: a 1 lakh ton Plasticizer plant (Rs 165 crore capex) and DEP de-bottlenecking (8,400 to 12,000 tons) are expected to mechanically complete by March 2026, with a Compressed Biogas plant targeted for Q2 CY26. Exports contributed about 15% of Q3 revenue.

Likely market impact

The sharp YoY decline in profitability and ongoing margin pressure are negatives for the stock in the near term, though the upcoming Plasticizer and CBG capacity could support a recovery if margins normalise. Investors should watch for margin improvement and successful commissioning of the new plants.
