IFFCO Achieves Historic Profit Milestone in 2025-26 Financial Year
The Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Limited (IFFCO) has announced its highest-ever Profit Before Tax (PBT) for the financial year 2025-26, with projections indicating it will surpass the Rs 4,106 crore mark. This remarkable achievement follows a year characterized by consistent production output and robust sales performance across all fertiliser categories.
Record Production and Operational Efficiency
During the financial year, the cooperative produced an impressive 90.62 lakh metric tonnes (MT) of fertilisers. This production volume included 48.28 lakh MT of urea and 42.34 lakh MT of various other products such as NPK, DAP, water-soluble fertilisers, and other specialty variants. The company reported high output levels at its key manufacturing units located in Phulpur, Aonla, and Paradeep.
Significant improvements in operational efficiency and logistics were noted, particularly in port operations at Paradeep, contributing to the overall production success. These enhancements in manufacturing and distribution processes played a crucial role in achieving the record financial results.
Strong Sales Performance Across Categories
Total fertiliser dispatches reached 119.68 lakh MT, reflecting sustained market demand. Conventional fertilisers accounted for 118.75 lakh MT of sales, encompassing urea, DAP, and NPK variants. The sales figures demonstrate the cooperative's strong market presence and the continued importance of traditional fertiliser products in Indian agriculture.
Nano fertilisers emerged as a significant growth area, with total sales exceeding 301 lakh bottles. This included 221 lakh bottles of Nano Urea Plus Liquid and over 64.89 lakh bottles of Nano DAP Liquid. The cooperative also recorded first-year sales of newer products such as Nano Zinc and Nano Copper, indicating successful market introduction of these innovative formulations.

The cooperative emphasized that its primary focus remains on supplying quality fertilisers, promoting balanced crop nutrition, and supporting farmers through improved input access and awareness about proper usage techniques. For the coming financial year, IFFCO plans to continue expanding its product range and operational capabilities.
