High raw material prices and the Russia-Ukraine war have pushed India’s fertiliser sector into fickle fields.
International fertiliser prices have skyrocketed of late due to a spike in raw material costs, which has been accentuated further by supply-side constraints stemming from the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The price of natural gas, for one, has more than doubled over the past year.
This could have a bearing on the fertiliser sector in India as a) fertiliser imports account for 25% of consumption, and b) significant part of the raw materials are imported.
In the context, what is the near-term outlook on fertiliser demand and profitability of players? What is the business and credit outlook for the players in the sector?
For answers, log into the webinar being organised by CRISIL Ratings, where its experts will delve into:
Impact of Russia-Ukraine conflict on fertiliser supply
Outlook on domestic fertiliser demand
Impact of high raw material prices on the profitability of players
Estimated shortfall in the announced subsidy budget for fiscal 2023
Impact of these factors on the credit profiles of the players in the sector
The presentation will be followed by a panel discussion with industry leaders and a Q&A session.
