What Chambal Fertilisers & Chemicals does

India's largest private-sector urea manufacturer, also distributing crop-protection products and other agri-inputs.

Sells urea at a government-fixed price and is paid a subsidy for the gap between that price and its production cost, using natural gas as feedstock, so subsidy policy and gas supply matter as much as farm demand. Crop protection and other agri-inputs sold through its dealer network add a trading business.
