Business Verticals:[1]
a) Materials (~30% of FY26 revenue):**
The segment comprises Performance Materials, Monomers and Polyamides. Its products include polyurethanes, engineering and specialty plastics, isocyanates and polyamide intermediates used across automobiles, appliances, footwear, furniture, construction and packaging. In FY26, Performance Materials benefited from higher volumes and better asset utilisation, including participation in new automobile and electric-vehicle programmes. However, lower price realisations, Asian overcapacity, freight and input-cost volatility continued to constrain the segment. [2]
