RevenueQ1 FY27 call

0–10%
  • The company expects a small single-digit growth in crop protection volumes for FY 2027, indicating a relatively flat to modest increase in sales.
  • Growth projections have been revised downward due to monsoon delays and associated impact on sowing and demand.
  • Despite a weaker 1Q impacted by delayed monsoon and lower sowing, recovery is anticipated in 2Q and 3Q as sowing catches up in some regions.
  • Demand is expected to remain strong in irrigated areas (about 60% of Indian agriculture), with higher crop protection investments there.
  • The bio-stimulant category is being reworked as a fallback and growth area under stress conditions; detailed guidance to be shared later.

10out of 100

Momentum score · price trend

10 out of 100 — Cooling

Over the past year its share price has done worse than most of the stocks we track.

PeriodShare price changeBetter than … of 1,910 stocks
Last 12 months−38.2%13%
Last 6 months−19.0%20%
Last 3 months−15.3%28%

The price is 52.6% below its all-time high of ₹1,847 (9 Aug 2024). Stocks more than 20% below their peak have their score halved, so 19 became 10.

How we calculate it

“Better than 30%” means that over that period the share price did better than 30 out of every 100 stocks we track (1,910 Indian companies worth ₹500 Cr or more, with at least a year of prices).

The score weighs the longer periods more: 40% × 12-month + 40% × 6-month + 20% × 3-month. For Dhanuka Agritech Ltd: 0.4 × 13 + 0.4 × 20 + 0.2 × 28 = 19, halved to 10 because the price is more than 20% below its all-time high.

Strengthening is 70 and above, Steady 40 to 70, Cooling below 40. Scores are recalculated every night after the market closes.
