Neogen Chemicals manufactures speciality organic bromine-based chemical compounds as well as speciality inorganic lithium-based chemical compounds.

NEOGEN’s unique chemistry and capabilities and its participation in emerging sectors such as electric vehicles (EV) provide a huge growth opportunity. We expect its earnings to increase at an FY23–25E CAGR of 26%, said Edelweiss.

Besides that, India’s speciality chemicals companies are expanding their capacities to cater to rising demand from domestic and overseas markets. With global companies seeking to de-risk their supply chains, which are dependent on China, the chemical sector in India has the opportunity for significant growth.
