Analyst Insight & Comprehensive Analysis
Business Overview and Revenue Trends
Gujarat State Fertilizer & Chemicals Ltd (GSFC) operates in the fertilisers industry and reported a market capitalization of ₹7,611 Cr with a stock price of ₹191. The company’s sales for FY 2025 stood at ₹9,429 Cr, reflecting a growth from ₹8,932 Cr in FY 2024. The quarterly sales figures indicate fluctuations, with a peak of ₹3,421 Cr in December 2022, followed by a decline to ₹1,940 Cr in March 2024. The sales in the latest quarter of June 2025 recorded ₹2,172 Cr. The company’s operating profit margin (OPM) averaged 9% in FY 2025, significantly lower than the 15% observed in FY 2022, highlighting challenges in maintaining profitability amid operational pressures. In the context of the sector, GSFC’s performance appears relatively stable but is subject to market volatility and agricultural demand cycles.
Profitability and Efficiency Metrics
GSFC’s profitability metrics reveal a net profit of ₹573 Cr for FY 2025, a decrease from ₹1,293 Cr in FY 2023, showcasing a decline in profitability. The earnings per share (EPS) also reflected this downward trend, standing at ₹14.38 for FY 2025 compared to ₹32.45 in FY 2023. The return on equity (ROE) is reported at 4.43%, significantly lower than the sector average, indicating less efficiency in generating returns from shareholder equity. The interest coverage ratio (ICR) of 79.50x suggests a robust ability to meet interest obligations, indicating financial stability despite profitability issues. The cash conversion cycle (CCC) of 67 days indicates an efficient operational cycle, although it has increased from prior periods, suggesting potential liquidity management challenges that the company needs to address.
Balance Sheet Strength and Financial Ratios
The balance sheet of GSFC indicates a conservative financial structure with total borrowings at just ₹2 Cr, revealing a debt-free status that enhances financial flexibility. Reserves stood at ₹11,925 Cr, contributing to a strong capital base. The price-to-book value (P/BV) ratio at 0.61x suggests that the stock is trading below its book value, potentially indicating undervaluation. The current ratio of 4.37x and quick ratio of 3.37x highlight strong liquidity positions, significantly above the typical sector ranges, indicating that GSFC is well-equipped to meet short-term liabilities. However, the declining net profit margin, which recorded 6.06% in FY 2025, raises concerns about operational efficiency and cost management, necessitating strategic adjustments to improve profitability.
Shareholding Pattern and Investor Confidence
The shareholding pattern of GSFC reflects a stable yet concentrated ownership structure, with promoters holding 37.84% of shares. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) have reduced their stakes to 11.64% and 7.34%, respectively, indicating a potential shift in investor sentiment. Public shareholders account for 37.51% of the total, while the number of shareholders has increased to 3,24,259, suggesting growing interest among retail investors. This shift could indicate a cautious outlook among institutional investors, possibly due to the declining profitability metrics. The stability of promoter holding amidst fluctuating institutional investments may reflect confidence in long-term business strategies, yet it also raises concerns about the company’s ability to attract sustained institutional interest moving forward.
Outlook, Risks, and Final Insight
If margins sustain and operational efficiency improves, GSFC could leverage its strong balance sheet and liquidity position to enhance profitability. However, the company faces risks from fluctuating raw material costs and agricultural demand, which could impact sales and profitability. Additionally, the declining trend in EPS and net profit may deter potential investors and could lead to increased volatility in stock performance. The concentration of ownership may also affect governance and strategic decision-making. Mitigating these risks will require proactive management strategies focused on cost control and market expansion. Overall, while GSFC holds a strong financial position, its ability to navigate market challenges will be crucial for maintaining investor confidence and achieving sustainable growth.
