Jubilant Agri and Consumer Products Limited (JACPL) has officially announced the partial commencement of commercial production of polymers (adhesives) at its manufacturing facility in Samlya (Savli), Vadodara, effective June 03, 2026. This milestone follows the company’s previous intimation on November 04, 2025, regarding the approval for capacity expansion at this site. The company expects to commission the remaining capacity within the next 6 to 8 months.
The expansion at the Vadodara facility is a strategic move to bolster the company’s Performance Polymers segment. This unit focuses on enhancing the production capabilities of adhesives, which are a core growth driver for the company. By increasing its manufacturing footprint in the West, the company aims to improve market penetration and support its long-term strategy of scaling its consumer-facing adhesive brand, “Jivanjor”. This capacity addition aligns with the company’s broader efforts to optimize production and meet rising demand.
Jubilant Agri and Consumer Products Limited, a part of the Jubilant Bhartia Group, is a diversified entity engaged in the manufacturing and supply of performance polymers, consumer products, and agricultural solutions. Its portfolio includes well-known brands such as “Jivanjor,” “Charmwood,” and “Ultra Italia” in the adhesives and wood finishes category, and “Ramban” in the agri-nutrient sector. Throughout 2025 and early 2026, the company has focused on strategic demerger plans to separate its volatile agri-division from its high-margin polymer and adhesive businesses, aiming to sharpen focus and unlock shareholder value. Recent operational highlights include sustained double-digit revenue growth in the adhesives segment and the successful allotment of shares under employee stock option plans.
For the financial year ended March 31, 2026, the company reported a robust performance, with consolidated net profit rising 45% to ₹1,279 crore and revenue from operations growing 21% to ₹18,911 crore. In the final quarter (Q4 FY26), the company recorded a consolidated net profit of ₹199 million, representing a 24% increase compared to the corresponding quarter of the previous year, while consolidated revenue grew 22% to ₹4,852 million. The company maintains a strong financial profile with a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.06 and a Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) of 37%. Promoters, led by Shyam S. Bhartia and Hari S. Bhartia, continue to hold a significant stake in the company, maintaining a stable governance structure.
