Commenting on the performance, Mr. Aayush Jain, Promoter, Chairman & Managing Director, said: “Our performance this half reflects the strength of our demand franchise. Total income grew by over 23%, supported by deeper engagement with our institutional customers and distribution partners.
During the period, we prioritised volumes and long-term customer relationships, while progressively aligning our pricing with input costs. We also maintained a higher raw nut inventory to secure supply through the season, which temporarily increased our working capital and interest costs. This approach is already delivering results: EBITDA margin improved from 12.09% in H2 FY26 to 14.00%, and we expect this progress to continue.
Structurally, the opportunity in front of us has never been stronger. India consumes nearly a third of the world’s cashew but grows only a fraction of the raw nuts it processes, so the advantage lies with processors who can source reliably and at the right cost. That is our core strength: farm-gate sourcing relationships across West Africa, built by Pajson Agro India Limited over more than a decade. With Mr. Vu Thai Son, who brings three decades of global cashew industry experience, joining us as Strategic Advisor, we are further sharpening that edge.”
Commenting on the growth outlook, Mr. Pulkit Jain, Promoter & Non-Executive Director, added: “The next leg of our growth will come from capacity. Our greenfield facility at Vizianagaram will add 35,000 MTPA, nearly tripling our total processing capacity, and is on track for commercial production in Q4 FY27. Built from the ground up with higher automation, it will process at a lower cost per kilogram than our current plant, so every additional tonne should contribute more to margins as utilisation ramps up.
Capacity gives us the room to widen our market. In India, we will grow ‘Royal Mewa’ through online and quick-commerce channels, investing selectively so that brand building does not come at the cost of profitability. Overseas, the new facility positions us to serve international markets across Europe, the US and the Middle East. Alongside, we are further strengthening our procurement and logistics risk management, so that our growth comes with greater earnings stability.”
