From the Q&A
TopicWhat management said
Spirits Business GuidanceManagement expects to deliver EBITDA in excess of INR500 crores for FY27 and is targeting an EBITDA in excess of INR1,000 crores in the next four to five years.
Performance of Premium Spirits (IMFL)The Prestige & Above segment volume was 0.5 million cases, almost double the prior year. Revenue growth did not match volume growth due to state and brand mix, but future launches in Deluxe Whiskey and Semi-Premium Vodka aim to improve margins and revenue growth.
Capex for New Strategic Unit (NSU)Capex is not expected to be huge this year, possibly INR5-20 crores. The aspiration is for this business to reach INR150 crores plus EBITDA this year and be an INR600-700 crores business in 4-5 years.
Joint Venture PerformanceThe JV had a good quarter with PAT of INR21 crores, driven by reduced pricing disadvantage for ethylene oxide. Management noted the JV performance has been on track over the last few years despite headwinds.
Benefit of DemergerThe demerger aims to bring focus, as the dynamics of the consumer spirits business are different from the B2B chemical business, and it provides clarity for different investor appetites.
Guidance
  • Aspiration: IGL Spirits to deliver EBITDA in excess of INR500 crores for FY27 and target >INR1,000 crores EBITDA in 4-5 years.
  • Aspiration: India Glycols (Chemicals) to deliver EBITDA of ~INR400 crores and be an INR2,500 crores business in 4-5 years.
  • Aspiration: Ennature Bio Pharma to achieve EBITDA of INR130-150 crores in the next 4-5 years.
