Financial Performance
Revenue Growth by Segment
Total Operating Income fell 33.5% YoY to INR 53.57 Cr in FY25 from INR 80.58 Cr in FY24. Segment-specific growth for sugar and power is not explicitly detailed in the provided documents.
Geographic Revenue Split
100% of revenue is concentrated in Madhya Pradesh, exposing the company to significant regional risk and supply chain concentration.
Profitability Margins
EBITDA margin was 13.26% in FY25 (vs 13.60% in FY24); PAT margin was 1.09% in FY25 (vs 1.77% in FY24). The decline was driven by higher operating costs and lower realizations.
EBITDA Margin
13.26% in FY25, reflecting a slight YoY decline from 13.60% due to regional supply disruptions and rising operational expenses.
Capital Expenditure
The company has applied for an expansion of its crushing capacity from 2500 TCD to 5000 TCD; however, the specific planned capital expenditure in INR Cr is not disclosed.
Credit Rating & Borrowing
Credit rating was reaffirmed at IVR BB but the outlook was revised from Stable to Negative in November 2025 due to operating losses in H1 FY26. Total debt stood at INR 30.41 Cr as of March 31, 2025.
Operational Drivers
Raw Materials
Sugarcane is the primary raw material. Shortages and supply disruptions in the Madhya Pradesh region led to operating losses in H1 FY26 and a 33.5% decline in revenue in FY25.
Import Sources
Sourced locally from the Dabra district and surrounding regions in Madhya Pradesh.
Key Suppliers
Sourced from local sugarcane farmers in Madhya Pradesh; specific company names are not disclosed.
Capacity Expansion
Current installed capacity is 2500 TCD (Tonnes Crushed per Day) for sugar and 3.75 MW for cogeneration. The company has applied for expansion to 5000 TCD.
Raw Material Costs
Not disclosed as a specific percentage of revenue; however, costs rose in FY25 due to sugarcane shortages and supply disruptions.
Manufacturing Efficiency
Crushing rate of 2500 TCD; efficiency is impacted by sugarcane availability and regional supply disruptions.
Strategic Growth
Growth Strategy
Doubling crushing capacity to 5000 TCD to achieve economies of scale and utilizing multi-fuel boilers to process raw sugar during the off-season to ensure year-round revenue generation.
Products & Services
Manufactured sugar and power generated through cogeneration.
Brand Portfolio
Operated under the LNCT Group umbrella.
Market Expansion
Focused on Madhya Pradesh; expansion of existing facility in Dabra to 5000 TCD.
Strategic Alliances
Part of the LNCT Group, which provides promoter support for debt obligations during periods of operating losses.
External Factors
Industry Trends
The industry is characterized by intense competition and commoditization. PSPL is positioning itself through capacity expansion and cogeneration to improve margins.
Competitive Landscape
Intense competition from other sugar mills in Madhya Pradesh and limited pricing power due to the commoditized nature of the product.
Competitive Moat
Established track record since 2013 and multi-fuel boiler capabilities provide a moderate, sustainable regional advantage in off-season processing.
Macro Economic Sensitivity
Highly sensitive to climatic conditions (rainfall) and regional agricultural output in Madhya Pradesh.
Geopolitical Risks
Limited, as operations and sales are primarily domestic within Madhya Pradesh.
Regulatory & Governance
Industry Regulations
Subject to sugar industry regulations and pollution norms; specific SEBI matters excluded.
Legal Contingencies
Pending litigations disclosed in Note 39 of the financial statements; specific aggregate value in INR is not provided in the available documents.
Risk Analysis
Key Uncertainties
Ability to restart operations by December 2025 and secure adequate sugarcane supply to reverse H1 FY26 operating losses.
Geographic Concentration Risk
100% revenue from Madhya Pradesh, exposing the company to regional agricultural and economic shocks.
Third Party Dependencies
High dependency on local sugarcane farmers for raw material supply.
Technology Obsolescence Risk
Multi-fuel boiler represents a technological adaptation to seasonal raw material shortages, reducing obsolescence risk.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Stretched liquidity due to operating losses in H1 FY26, resulting in a high reliance on promoter support for debt obligations.
