- Record quarterly total income of ₹106.57 cr, EBITDA of ₹22.83 cr, and PAT of ₹14.96 cr.
- EBITDA margin expands to 21.42% on better realizations and higher volumes.
- Management cites improved realizations in caustic soda lye and chlorinated paraffin wax.
Why this matters
The record quarter proves the core business is executing well on pricing and costs. But the company recently sought a ₹500 cr borrowing limit, larger than its ₹381 cr market cap, signalling ambitious expansion. The test is whether the record profitability justifies the higher borrowing.
What we're watching
- Timely execution of ongoing expansion projects.
- Sustainability of margin improvements in a volatile chemicals cycle.
- Impact of higher borrowing on debt/equity ratio (currently 0.69).
The full read
Lords Chloro Alkali just closed its best quarter ever. Total income hit ₹106.57 crore, EBITDA came in at ₹22.83 crore with a 21.42% margin, and net profit rose 43% to ₹14.96 crore. Improved realizations in caustic soda lye and chlorinated paraffin wax, higher volumes, and cost control powered the numbers. The financials were already out from the board meeting; the press release is qualitative context. But this record sits against a big ambition: the company recently asked for a ₹500 crore borrowing limit, bigger than its ₹381 crore market cap. Execution on expansion is the next chapter. This quarter shows the baseline is solid. The test from here is whether management can scale without overstretching.
