FY26 revenue growth was 3.6% at Sumitomo Chemical, 23.5% at Sharda Cropchem and 11.4% at UPL. P\/E stands at 35.70 for Sumitomo Chemical (industry 23.78), 10.36 for Sharda Cropchem (industry 23.78) and 18.23 for UPL (industry 23.78). Monsoon, raw material prices and margins decide how much of that growth reaches profit, so each company&#8217;s risks need equal attention.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Agro chemical stocks give investors exposure to the products that protect crops, from insecticides and herbicides to fungicides and plant nutrients. Their revenue moves with monsoon quality, pest pressure and export demand, which is why growth and profit do not always travel together in the same quarter.<\/p>\n<p>This list covers three agro chemical sector stocks: Sumitomo Chemical India for branded crop protection and public health products, Sharda Cropchem for crop protection formulations and global registrations and UPL for global crop protection and seeds. Every figure comes from the latest reported financials and the 5 October 2026 market close. Companies without complete current figures were left out.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><a

At a P\/E of 35.70 against an industry P\/E of 23.78, the stock trades above its industry multiple.<\/p>\n<p>What to watch: Crop protection volumes follow monsoon and pest cycles.
