Avadh Sugar Q3 FY26 PAT Jumps 143% to ₹17 Cr; EBITDA Up 47% on Higher Realizations

🟢 POSITIVE ⭐ 7/10

EARNINGS 📅 05 Feb 2026, 06:04 PM

Avadh Sugar & Energy reported a strong Q3 FY26 with PAT surging 143% YoY to ₹17 crore and EBITDA growing 47% to ₹56 crore. Revenue rose to ₹638 crore, supported by a 7% increase in sugar realizations (₹4,039/qtl) and a 17% growth in ethanol sales volumes. The company successfully operationalized its Hargaon unit expansion to 13,000 TCD, leading to an 8% increase in sugarcane crushing. While operational metrics are strong, the industry faces margin pressure from an 8% hike in the UP State Advisory Price (SAP) for sugarcane without a corresponding hike in the sugar MSP.

Q3 FY26 PAT increased 143% YoY to ₹17 crore; EBITDA rose 47% to ₹56 crore.
Sugar realizations improved by 7% YoY to ₹4,039 per quintal, mitigating lower domestic quota volumes.
Ethanol sales volume grew 17% YoY to 202.61 lac litres, driven by higher offtake and efficiency.
Hargaon unit crushing capacity expanded from 10,000 TCD to 13,000 TCD, now fully operational.
Average sugar recovery improved to 9.43% in Q3 FY26 from 8.60% in the previous year.

💡 Investors should focus on the company's ability to maintain margins despite the ₹30/quintal hike in UP sugarcane SAP, making a potential Sugar MSP revision a key catalyst. The stock remains a strong candidate for those tracking the ethanol blending theme and operational turnaround through capacity expansion.

🟢 POSITIVE ⭐ 7/10

EARNINGS 📅 05 Feb 2026, 06:03 PM

Avadh Sugar & Energy reported a strong recovery in Q3 FY26, with PAT jumping 143% YoY to Rs 17 crore, supported by a 3.2% increase in total income to Rs 639 crore. Despite the strong quarterly performance, the 9-month (9MFY26) PAT remains significantly lower at Rs 2 crore compared to Rs 16 crore in the previous year due to earlier crop disease impacts. The company has successfully increased its Hargaon unit's crushing capacity to 13,000 TCD, which is expected to drive future volumes. Management is optimistic about the shift to disease-resistant sugarcane varieties and the government's ethanol blending program.

Q3 FY26 PAT increased by 143% YoY to Rs 17 crore from Rs 7 crore in Q3 FY25.
Q3 FY26 EBITDA rose to Rs 56 crore, up from Rs 38 crore in the corresponding quarter last year.

9MFY26 Total Income stood at Rs 2,026 crore, showing a marginal growth of 3.3% YoY.
Total ethanol capacity maintained at 325 KLPD with a combined sugar crushing capacity of 34,800 TCD.

💡 Investors should view the Q3 turnaround as a positive sign of recovery from previous crop diseases, though the weak 9-month cumulative profit warrants caution. Monitor the impact of the Hargaon capacity expansion on Q4 results and any government updates on ethanol pricing.
