Trends in specialty chemicals landscape
The Indian chemical industry got advantage vs China due to Trust deficit between China and the US; stringent environmental regulations since 2015 and large-scale shutdowns in China; customers preference to de-risk the supply chain led to China+1 policy; geopolitical shift after the outbreak of Covid-19 and increased cost of labour.
With an increasing awareness of the ill effects of certain chemicals on humans and the environment, there is a growing trend in the chemicals industry to shift towards what is known as 'green' chemicals or more accurately sustainable chemistry.
Meanwhile, China holds 39% share in the global chemical industry of which exportable specialty chemicals accounts for ~15-17 per cent while India accounts for merely 1-2 per cent indicating widespread opportunity. The spillover impact of China's declining competitiveness has set the stage for India to intensify its effort to capture larger market share, the company said.
Meanwhile, during FY 25, one of the major products of the company SDA (Structure Directing Agents) saw moderation in offtake from its major export destination which is China. Due to higher adoption of LNG Powered trucks by Chinese companies, the company saw substantial decline in SDA demand from Chinese consumers.
Further, the Group will be entering into the commercial phase of new products in FY 26 and offtake of new products will be crucial for improvement of business risk profile, Crisil Ratings said in its rationale.

Trump boasts success of levying tariffs on India
Washington: Boasting about the success of his reciprocal tariff policies, US President Donald Trump said his massive sanctions on India over purchasing Russian oil have 'dealt a big blow' to Moscow. Addressing a briefing in the White House on Monday, Trump said Russia's economy has been heavily impacted by the global pressure stemming from the imposition of US tariffs on multiple countries, many of whom are top buyers of Russian energy and weapons. 'It doesn't help when the president of the United States tells their largest or second-largest oil buyer that we're putting a 50% tariff on you if you buy oil from Russia. That was a big blow,' Trump stated, in a veiled reference to India. 'No one would have been so tough, and I haven't stopped there,' he added. Last week, the US President added an additional 25% tariffs to Indian goods, bringing his sanctions to over 50%, as a punitive measure for New Delhi's purchase of Russian oil. Trump added that Russia had 'tremendous potential to do well,' but claimed that its economy 'is not doing well right now because it's been very well disturbed by this.' India has refused to succumb to the American pressure, with the Foreign Ministry calling the US measures "unfair" and "unjustified", and has vowed to protect its national interests.
