IFFCO clocks record profit before tax of Rs 4,106 crores in FY 2025-26

IFFCO achieves a record ₹4,106 crore profit before tax, with soaring nano-fertiliser sales and new plants driving India's agricultural future.

"The path ahead is clear... we are united... to realise Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi's vision of 'Viksit Bharat @ 2047' - IFFCO Press Release"

New Delhi, April 4

Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Ltd. Saturday said it clocked a record profit before tax of Rs 4,106 crores in the financial year 2025-26. IFFCO Chairman Dileep Sanghani stated that the financial year 2025-26 has emerged as a milestone in the history of the Indian cooperative movement, the company said in a press release.

IFFCO said it also set new benchmarks in production and sales. A record sale of 118.75 lakh metric tonnes of fertilisers, coupled with a nationwide supply of 119.68 lakh metric tonnes, stands as proof that the institution accords the highest priority to farmers' needs. The rising sales of urea and DAP have further solidified IFFCO's pivotal role in the agricultural sector.

"In FY 2025-26, the popularity of nano-fertilisers witnessed rapid growth, with sales exceeding 30.1 lakh bottles. Products such as Nano Urea Plus, Nano DAP, Nano Zinc, Nano Copper, and 'Dharamrut' have emerged as highly effective, eco-friendly, and cost-efficient alternatives for farmers," according to the press release.

Furthermore, Nano NPK Liquid (8-8-10) and Nano NPK Granular (20-10-10) have been notified under the Fertiliser Control Order--these are the first products of their kind in the world. They can be utilised through both foliar spraying and soil application, enhancing nutrient use efficiency and creating a positive environmental impact.

To expand the reach of nano technology, IFFCO inaugurated its fourth nano-fertiliser plant in Devanahalli, Bengaluru, bringing the total production capacity to approximately 950,000 bottles per day. Meanwhile, the Nano Innovation Centre in Coimbatore is emerging as a pivotal platform for research and technological development, with work underway on new technologies focused on the future of agriculture.

"The path ahead is clear: Through nano technology, organic practices, and harmonising fertilisers with modern agriculture--via IFFCO--we are united in our collective endeavour to realise Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi's vision of "Viksit Bharat @ 2047"," the company said in the press release.

As someone interested in sustainable agri-tech, this is impressive. The notification of nano NPK products under the Fertiliser Control Order is a world-first? That's a major innovation coming from India. The environmental impact of reducing bulk fertiliser use could be massive. Well done to the team in Coimbatore!

Record profit is good, but I hope the focus remains on affordability for the farmer. Sometimes when cooperatives become this big, they start acting like corporate giants. The profit should be reinvested to subsidise prices further or improve last-mile delivery in remote areas.

The numbers are staggering! 118 lakh metric tonnes sold... that's the backbone of our food security right there. My father always said IFFCO's quality is reliable. Glad to see them leading the nano-tech revolution. The new plant in Bengaluru will create so many jobs too. 👏

This is a true "Made in India" success story. From a farmers' cooperative to a global innovator in nano-technology. Aligning with the PM's vision of Viksit Bharat is the right way forward. Hope other PSUs and cooperatives learn from IFFCO's model of blending profit with public purpose.

The emphasis on eco-friendly alternatives like Dharamrut is so important. We need to move away from chemicals that ruin soil health. I just hope the nano-fertilisers are readily available at all Krishi Seva Kendras and the dealers are properly educated to guide farmers on their use.
