Crop protection segment fell 17.9% YoY to Rs 93 crore due to deferral of Rs 40 crore worth of shipment to Q3 FY21.

Ebitda for the quarter came in at Rs 70 crore, up 19.6% YoY (including Covid-19 related expenses of Rs 1.1 crore).

Ebitda margins expanded 58 basis points YoY to 18.8% due to lower staff and other expenses, partly offset by lower gross margins.
