Quick summary

EID Parry India, the Murugappa Group sugar, biofuels and nutraceuticals company with a large fertilizer presence through Coromandel International, reports its Q2 FY 2026-2027 numbers into a quarter shaped by a sharp sugar price spike-and-collapse and frozen ethanol prices. The print will speak to margin trajectory against a higher cane cost base and the PSRIPL wind-down, where the company has guided to period costs only from Q2 FY27.

EID Parry India Limited Q2 Results Date and Time

The board is scheduled to meet on Friday, November 13, 2026, to approve unaudited standalone and consolidated results for the quarter and half-year ended September 30, 2026 (Regulation 29, SEBI LODR). No dividend agenda phrase appears in the board-meeting intimation.

An analyst/investor call on the Q2/H1 FY27 results is scheduled for November 16, 2026, at 10:30 IST. Speakers include Whole-time Director & CEO Muthiah Murugappan, with analyst lead Sanjay Manyal of DAM Capital Advisors.

What to expect from EID Parry India Limited's Q2 FY27 results

The quarter tests whether EID Parry's 'margin pool has grown' narrative holds as sugar ex-mill prices collapsed roughly 25-30% from the August peak of Rs. 5,530/quintal to about Rs. 4,450/quintal by late September, while ethanol prices stay frozen for a third year and the 2026-27 cane cost base steps up with FRP at Rs. 3,650/t.

Sugar realization on the 1.16 LMT inventory carried at about Rs. 41.50 should benefit from August sales into a market near Rs. 50/kg, but the September fall caps the capture; distillery demand stayed soft with Q1 ENA realization at Rs. 63.49/litre and the ~17 crore litre ethanol guide conditional on blending improvement.

Management's August markers are testable this quarter: PSRIPL bank loans fully repaid by June 30, 2026, SEZ exit formalities by September 30, 2026 with period costs only from Q2 FY27, and CPG quarterly break-even within 4-5 quarters from August 2026 after the loss narrowed from Rs. 17.47 Cr to Rs. 11.98 Cr in Q1.

The policy respite management said it needs on MSP and ethanol price did not materialize in the quarter, with government action running the other way through imports and stock caps, and the -24% South Peninsula monsoon is a demand watch for the Coromandel segment that contributed Rs. 6,951 Cr of Q1 revenue. The November 16 call is expected to cover the PSRIPL closure, the distillery bridge, sugar realization and CPG loss trajectory.

Key Things To Watch

Guidance scorecard: Management's stated markers and what to verify on the call:

  • CPG quarterly break-even — within 4-5 quarters from Aug 2026 — check quarterly loss trajectory vs the FY26 standalone CPG loss of Rs. (109) Cr
  • Jaggery facility commissioning — by end of FY'27 Q3 — any timeline revision is key; Rs. 40 crore capex, ~Rs. 100 Cr turnover and 'more than double' capacity guided
  • PSRIPL SEZ exit — by September 30, 2026 — status update needed; bank loans fully repaid by June 30, 2026 per Q1 filing
  • Nutra steady-state EBITDA margin 12-15% — open-ended; highest-ever Nutra revenue guided for FY27
  • TN/AP crush — flat to -5% for FY27 with Karnataka compensating — verify against early crush data; ethanol ~17 crore litres conditional on blending improvement

PSRIPL wind-down execution

  • Period costs only expected from Q2 FY27 'as per the plan'; asset-sale/tender progress after the 51st AGM approved disposal
  • Utilization of the up-to-Rs. 130 Cr additional loan support (Rs. 55 Cr disbursed in Q1) and the Rs. 65 Cr remaining disbursement per the call summary

Sugar realization and cane availability

  • Realization on the 1.16 LMT sugar inventory valued at approximately Rs. 41.50 vs the ~Rs. 4,450/quintal late-September ex-mill market after the ~25-30% fall from the August peak
  • TN/AP cane availability for the October crush after the South Peninsula monsoon at 76% of LPA; cane cost base at Rs. 4,087/MT in Q4 FY26 vs Rs. 3,768/MT

Distillery bridge and ethanol policy

  • Ethanol volumes vs the ~17 crore litre conditional guide; ENA realization vs the Rs. 63.49/litre Q1 average, with Karnataka ENA at Rs. 58-60 and Tamil Nadu around Rs. 72
  • Feedstock-switch commentary with C-heavy-only restriction widely expected for the new supply year; no multi-feed conversion capex until policy clarity

Working capital and debt seasonality

  • Short-term debt rebuilds with crushing; ~Rs. 980 Cr short-term and ~Rs. 150 Cr long-term standalone debt as of June 30, 2026 per the Q1 call
  • Non-core land disposal progress expected in FY'27; balance-sheet strengthening targeted by March '27 and '28
