The full read
Chemcon Speciality Chemicals closed FY26 with ₹239.98 crore in revenue, a 15.7% gain over the prior year. Profit fell 3.5% to ₹23.60 crore. That is the annual story.
But the final quarter changed the trajectory. Q4 FY26 delivered 37.4% revenue growth and a 61.5% jump in net profit compared to the previous year. This performance suggests the company cleared its primary operational hurdles before March 31. The board declared a ₹6.50 dividend per share, signalling that cash remains available despite the annual profit decline.
The next test is durability. If the Q4 momentum was a one-time event, the stock returns to the constraints seen in the first three quarters. If the growth is real, the company enters the new fiscal year with genuine momentum. Everything depends on the first-quarter numbers.
