Motilal Oswal's research report on Deepak Nitrite

Gross margin contracted by 280bp YoY to 28% and EBITDA margins contracted by 420bp, led by the persistent pricing pressure and a slower-than-expected recovery in some agrochemical intermediates.Amid a volatile geopolitical environment and shifting global trade dynamics, DN reported volume growth across its diverse product portfolio, driven by a strong recovery in demand from non-agrochemical applications.Considering a muted performance and macroeconomic headwinds, we cut our EPS estimates by 9% for FY26 and largely maintain our FY27 estimates.
