Shares of fertiliser companies jumped up to 5% on April 8 after Donald Trump announced a temporary 2-week ceasefire with Iran. The news improved global sentiment and reduced fears of supply disruptions.

Leading fertiliser stocks in India include Coromandel International, Chambal Fertilisers & Chemicals, Fertilisers and Chemicals Travancore, and Gujarat State Fertilisers & Chemicals.

Why the Ceasefire Matters

Iran agreed to ensure safe shipping through the Strait of Hormuz for 2 weeks. This route is critical for global trade and fertiliser raw material supply.

India is the second-largest fertiliser consumer in the world, and it imports a large portion of raw materials and finished products from the Middle East. Any disruption in this route can increase costs and affect supply.

Conclusion

The US-Iran ceasefire eased fears of supply disruptions and shipping risks, lifting fertiliser stocks.
