Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilizers & Chemicals Ltd (GNFC), a Gujarat government-backed joint-sector enterprise, reported an 8 per cent year-on-year increase in consolidated net profit to ₹194 crore for the September quarter of FY27, supported by higher realisations and volumes across its fertilizer and chemicals businesses. However, elevated input and fixed costs, particularly amid higher feedstock and energy prices, partly offset the gains.
Revenue from operations rose 41 per cent to ₹2,773 crore during the quarter. It was aided by revenue from the fertilizer segment which increased 43 per cent year-on-year to ₹1,117 crore, while the chemicals segment reported a 40 per cent growth in revenue to ₹1,631 crore during the quarter.
