Management take of Q1FY25 Performance
Commenting on the Q1 performance, Mahendra Kumar Dhanuka, Vice Chairman & Managing Director said: “The year has started on a positive note and we have witnessed decent demand for all our product categories during the first quarter. The timely arrival of the monsoon and dwindling inventory levels have contributed to increased orders from the distribution network, setting a positive trajectory for the company."
“I am happy to inform you that the sowing season is in full swing in July and the sowing acreages for major crops are expected to be higher in the ongoing season, particularly in the wake of the prediction of a normal monsoon. The management is confident of delivering healthy growth in the second quarter and improving the EBITDA margins,” said Dhanuka.
Dhanuka Agritech is also dedicated to introducing new technologies to the agriculture sector. The company conducts training programs nationwide to demonstrate these technologies and educate farmers on the proper use of agrochemicals. Notably, in India, the consumption of agrochemicals per acre remains significantly lower than the global average.
The company's international collaborations with leading agrochemical companies introduce cutting-edge technology to Indian farmlands. Backed by a workforce of over 1,000 techno-commercial staff and supported by a robust R&D division and distribution network, Dhanuka serves approximately 10 million Indian farmers with its products and services
