Commenting on the Results, Shri Samir Somaiya, CMD, said, “Q4FY26 was marked by a challenging operating environment for the sugar and ethanol industry, with elevated cane and feedstock costs impacting overall sector profitability. Against this backdrop, our integrated business model, operational discipline and diversified portfolio enabled us to deliver a resilient performance during the quarter while continuing to strengthen our long-term growth platforms.

During the 2025-26 crushing season, we achieved our highest-ever cane crushing of 2.5 million tonnes. The Sugar business witnessed improved operational performance during the quarter, supported by higher crushing volumes, improved recovery trends and strong execution in exports. Our continued focus on operational efficiencies helped support segment performance despite the broader industry challenges.

The sugar & ethanol segment continued to operate in a relatively compressed margin environment due to feedstock economics and pricing dynamics. However, the long-term outlook for the industry remains positive supported by the Government’s ethanol blending programme and stable policy direction.The 

Bio-based Chemicals segment recorded meaningful contributions from specialty chemicals, with ethyl acetate realizations remained favorable, though emerging geopolitical disruptions impacted operating margins. We remain focused on increasing the share of higher-margin specialty products and improving capacity utilization across the portfolio.

During the quarter, we further strengthened our innovation portfolio with the grant of a Japanese patent related to antiviral therapeutics, reinforcing our R&D capabilities. We are also encouraged by the continued momentum in our consumer business, with Jivana revenues crossing Rs 129 crore in FY26 compared to Rs 108 crore in FY25. The growing scale of our retail platform reflects increasing consumer acceptance and supports our strategy of building a more diversified and resilient business model alongside our industrial businesses.

Looking ahead, we remain focused on scaling our bio-based chemicals and ethanol businesses through debottlenecking, capacity optimization and diversification of feedstock for ethanol production, capitalizing on the Government’s efforts to move beyond E20. In parallel, we continue to expand our high-value bio-based chemicals portfolio by leveraging our integrated R&D and manufacturing capabilities. Continued investments in technology, process efficiencies and sustainability-led initiatives remain central to our strategy, supporting long-term value creation.”

The Bio-based Chemicals segment continued to support profitability, with specialty chemicals contributing 62% of the basket in 9MFY26, and we expect this share to rise further as we scale high-value offerings.

A key highlight during the period was the grant of a U.S. patent for our novel anti-cancer molecule targeting triple-negative breast cancer, underscoring the strength of our R&D capabilities and commitment to innovation-led growth. In parallel, our DME-to-CO? technology initiative is progressing well, with pilot plant activities underway.

We recently collaborated with Synthomer, to develop bio-based alternatives to fossil-based monomers. Through this collaboration, Synthomer is commercialising bio-based butyl acrylate using GBL’s bio-based butanol, accelerating the industry’s transition to sustainable raw materials and reflecting our continued focus on sustainability, green chemistry, and next-generation energy solutions.

We are also encouraged by strong traction in our consumer segment, with our Jivana brand crossing the Rs 100 crore revenue milestone in the first nine months of FY26, reinforcing our strategy to scale the retail platform alongside our industrial businesses. Our fungible grain-based ethanol capacity will be commissioned in Q1FY27, positioning us to benefit from the restoration of the ethanol blending program and incremental demand from maize-based capacities.

These initiatives, along with ongoing debottlenecking and investments in technology, are strengthening our ability to manage seasonality while improving efficiency. Overall, our continued focus on high-potential bio-based specialty chemicals, capacity optimization, and sustainability-led innovation positions us well to drive long-term growth and value creation.”

Shri Samir Somaiya, CMD, said: ““Q2FY26 has shown early signs of recovery for the company. We achieved 34% growth in revenue from operations, and significantly narrowed EBITDA losses to Rs 4.4 crore, down from Rs 31.5 crore in the same quarter last year. Segment performance continues to validate our direction. Bio-based chemicals segment delivered 60% EBITDA growth, while Ethanol segment EBITDA turned positive at Rs 4.7 crore, compared to a loss of Rs 2.9 crore last year. This improvement reflects the impact of our strategic focus on bio-based specialty chemicals and the restoration of the Ethanol Blending Programme.

As part of our progress in drug discovery ,the Clinical Study Report of our novel anti-cancer molecule reflecting the successful conclusion of our safety trials has been received. This will now enable us to prepare the application for the next phase of drug discovery – preliminary efficacy trials.

Also, a European patent application titled “COMPOUNDS FOR THE INHIBITION OF UNREGULATED CELL GROWTH” has been granted for processing under our Anti-Cancer Research segment, strengthening our pipeline in advanced therapeutics.

Our 200 KLPD fungible grain/maize distillery is targeted for commissioning in Q4FY26. This facility will enable us to capitalise on diversified feedstock, particularly as grain/maize based ethanol gain traction, thereby enhancing feedstock flexibility and margin resilience.

In a major step toward sustainability, Godavari Biorefineries, in collaboration with ICT Mumbai, has launched a pilot CO?-to-DME project. This is a revolutionary breakthrough technology in climate action. This revolutionary technology converts industrial CO2 emissions directly into Dimethyl Ether (DME) — a low-emission, eco-friendly energy carrier. Dimethyl ether (DME) is a clean-burning fuel that can effectively replace conventional energy sources such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and diesel, contributing to reduced emissions, improved environmental performance and decarbonisation. The initiative reflects our commitment to clean energy and offering sustainable solutions.

We are progressing as planned. Our efforts to mitigate seasonality risks are visible in the increased focus on high-potential bio-based specialty chemicals, ongoing debottlenecking, and strategic investments in multi-feedstock ethanol capacity. On the R&D front, we continue to drive long-term growth through scientific innovation and sustainability-led solutions. With these initiatives, we remain confident in our ability to create sustainable value for all stakeholders.”
