Business
Kaveri Seed Company Limited conducts extensive research, production, processing, and commercialization of hybrid seeds for a broad spectrum of field and vegetable crops. Its comprehensive portfolio offers varieties for essential field crops such as maize, paddy, cotton, sunflower, mustard, sorghum, pearl millet, wheat, and diverse pulses. The company also provides hybrid seeds for vegetables including tomatoes, okra, chilies, watermelon, gourds, and brinjal. Kaveri Seed Company distributes its products across India through a robust network of distributors and retailers. Furthermore, it maintains an international footprint, exporting seeds to countries like Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Vietnam. Established in 1976, the company operates from its headquarters in Secunderabad, India. The firm's strategic focus is rooted in continuous research and development, aiming to deliver high-yielding, disease-resistant, and climate-resilient seed varieties that bolster farmer productivity and income. Reflecting a dynamic approach, the company has actively diversified its product offerings, progressively emphasizing non-cotton crops. Recent corporate activities include the finalization of a 30% equity stake acquisition in Aditya Agritech Private Limited during November 2025. Although the September 2025 quarter saw a consolidated net loss, the company recorded an overall increase in net sales for the period.
