What the business is, and whether it's a good one at a fair price.
Sells crop protection chemicals and hybrid seeds to Indian farmers. Crop protection (insecticides, herbicides, fungicides) made up 76% of FY26 revenue, hybrid seeds (anchored by corn) contributed 19%, and exports 5%. Corn has emerged as India's third field crop driven by ethanol, feed and silage demand, and the corn seed portfolio has nearly doubled over five years (CAGR 15–16%); management is targeting to double it again. Seven new crop protection products were launched in FY26, including BICOTA, with Camalus, Xivana Smart and the global insecticide Plenexos in the pipeline. Materials — largely imported active ingredients — are the dominant cost line at 55.6% of revenue, prompting a shift to 'India for India' and broader Asia sourcing away from China. H1 FY26 grew only 3% as relentless monsoon extended into the Rabi season and missed spray windows; eastern India go-to-market is being rebuilt around a partner-led Better Life Farming model.
