Best Agrolife Limited — Investor Meet, 11-08-2025: Analysts/Institutional Investor Meet/Con. Call Updates

Best Agrolife reported Q1 FY26 revenue down 27% YoY to Rs. 382 Cr due to a strategic shift towards in-season sales and reduced inventory placement. Despite lower sales, profitability surged: gross margins hit 30% (up from 24%), EBITDA margin reached 12% (up from 10.6%), and PAT was Rs. 20 Cr. This reflects a focus on higher-margin patented products, now 45% of brand sales, and tighter cost control, reducing sales returns to Rs. 13 Cr (vs. Rs. 35-40 Cr last year). Management targets FY26 revenue of Rs. 1,600-1,700 Cr with over 15% EBITDA margin, expecting strong Q2 performance and sustained profitability.
