After a brief pause in November, the rally in UPL stock has resumed its momentum. It is up almost 40% since November lows and analysts see further gains. The strong Q3 performance posted by the company has added to investor confidence.
The demand for agrochemicals in the country continues to remain firm led by good reservoir levels after the strong monsoon season, robust winter crop sowing and increased farmer income. Growth in India market provided support to UPL’s performance during Q3, while Latin America, the key market for UPL, saw some weakness. European markets too reported a robust growth, compensating partly for weakness in LATAM.
