Their earnings depend on volumes, product mix and input costs. This list looks at three of them, Himadri Speciality Chemical, Atul and Coromandel International, using reported FY22 to FY26 financials and the 21 October 2026 closing prices.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_chemical_and_crop_nutrient_stocks_are_covered_in_this_list\"><\/span><strong>Which chemical and crop nutrient stocks are covered in this list?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> This list covers Himadri Speciality Chemical, Atul and Coromandel International.

The main drivers are as follows. Industrial demand. Rubber, steel and pharma users need reliable chemical supply. Farm productivity. Farmers use more nutrients and crop protection to lift yields. Higher-value products. A move into speciality grades supports better margins. Together these factors give the companies on this list a visible path for growth over the coming years.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_has_Himadri_Speciality_Chemical_performed_financially\"><\/span><strong>How has Himadri Speciality Chemical performed financially?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Revenue rose from Rs 2,799 crore in FY22 to Rs 4,832 crore in FY26, a compound annual growth rate of 14.6%.
