What drove the quarter
In his commentary on page 17, Whole Time Director and CEO Mandar Joshi said Q1 FY27 performance was “significantly improved”, driven primarily by:
- Better product mix and improved realisations.
- Efficient raw material procurement.
- Continued focus on cost optimisation and operational efficiencies.
He noted that while the Indian chemical industry faced a mixed operating environment with subdued demand across several user industries and volatility in raw material prices and currencies, IVP’s emphasis on operational excellence and disciplined cost management led to a “substantial improvement in profitability” during the quarter.
Business profile and segments
According to the business overview on pages 5 and 8:
- IVP operates in two core verticals: Phenolic resins (foundry applications) and polyurethane resins.
- Key application areas include foundry chemicals, footwear solutions (PU systems for shoe soles) and flexible packaging (PU laminating adhesives).
- Indicative revenue contribution (page 8):
- Foundry applications: 30–40% of revenue.
- Footwear solutions: 60–65%.
- Flexible packaging: 5–10%.
The company runs manufacturing facilities at Tarapur and Bengaluru (pages 10–11), with an installed capacity of 50,000 tonnes per annum at Tarapur (page 5 and 10). The Tarapur plant produces foundry binders, coatings and polyurethane systems, while Bengaluru focuses on foundry coatings.
Balance sheet and longer‑term trends
While the investor presentation is primarily focused on Q1, it also provides a five‑year summary of financials and the balance sheet (pages 20–21):
- FY26 revenue from operations stood at Rs 595 crore, up from Rs 539 crore in FY25 (page 20).
- FY26 PAT was Rs 19 crore vs Rs 11 crore in FY25.

- Short‑term borrowings declined to Rs 65 crore in FY26 from Rs 104 crore in FY25, reflecting a leaner balance sheet (page 21).
The ratios chart on page 23 shows for FY26:
- EBITDA margin at 6%.
- PAT margin at 3%.
- Current ratio at 1.47x.
- Debt‑to‑equity at 0.42x.
- ROCE at 15% and ROE at 13%.
Outlook
Looking ahead, management remains “cautiously optimistic” about the long‑term prospects of the Indian economy and domestic chemical industry (page 17). Key priorities include:
- Strengthening customer engagement and deepening relationships in existing markets.
- Enhancing product mix and value‑added offerings to improve margins.
- Leveraging the diversified product portfolio to address evolving customer requirements.
- Improving operational efficiencies and cost competitiveness across the value chain.
- Maintaining prudent financial discipline and strong working capital management.
The strategy section on page 25 adds that IVP aims to maximise asset utilisation (using unutilised land reserves to expand polyurethane capacity), diversify further into higher‑margin non‑foam PU applications such as flexible packaging, and continue deleveraging to reinforce its balance sheet.
