Venky's (India) Limited, formerly Western Hatcheries, is an integrated poultry group in Asia, primarily engaged in the production and sale of poultry products such as broiler and layer chicks, and SPF eggs.

The company reported weak financial performance in Q2 FY '26, particularly in its core poultry segment due to lower realization prices and external factors such as festivals and weather conditions.

Despite the downturn in the poultry segment, Venky's has shown resilience in its Animal Health Products division, with sales and production showing growth potential and contributing to stability in revenues.

The company is strategically expanding its SPF egg production capacity and maintaining a strong position in the oilseed and animal health product segments.

Venky's faces challenges in the competitive poultry market with fluctuating prices but has the advantage of a diverse operational base and strategic partnerships to leverage future growth.
