Commentary from the Management

Year of Breakthrough Growth & Historic Turnaround in H2 FY26 & FY26, Mr. Hozefa Shabbir Husain Jawadwala, Chairman & Managing Director of Aelea Commodities Limited, said:

"As we reflect on FY26, we believe this year marks far more than just a strong financial performance for Aelea Commodities; it marks the emergence of a fundamentally stronger, sharper, and future- ready enterprise. What the Company has achieved over the past year is the outcome of conviction- led decisions, relentless execution, and the courage to invest ahead of the curve during a phase when the business was still navigating challenges.

FY26 emerged as a defining turning point for Aelea Commodities. The Company delivered Revenue from Operations of ₹381.50 Cr, registering a stellar 109% YoY growth, while EBITDA surged 366% YoY to ₹40.37 Cr. Most significantly, Profit After Tax rose sharply to ₹21.32 Cr, reflecting exceptional YoY growth of 1,739.74%.

The transformation became even more visible during H2 FY26, where the scale of acceleration exceeded expectations. Revenue from Operations grew 120% YoY to ₹207.81 Cr, while EBITDA stood at ₹25.12 Cr and PAT at ₹12.61 Cr, against losses in the corresponding period last year.

These numbers are not merely financial milestones; they reflect the successful conversion of strategy into execution and execution into measurable value creation. Further, this performance was strengthened by key strategic milestones achieved during the year, including the incorporation of two wholly owned subsidiaries, multiple industry recognitions and awards, and the globally recognized FSSC 22000 Certification for the Company's Surat manufacturing facility.

We remain deeply grateful to every shareholder, stakeholder, and well-wisher who stood by Aelea Commodities during its most challenging phases. True conviction belongs to those who continue believing even in adversity, and that unwavering trust continues to fuel our ambition as we move forward with stronger fundamentals, sharper execution, and an uncompromising vision towards building a globally competitive and future-ready enterprise."
