The company has already expanded its crushing capacity from 3500 to 5000 TCD and has further increased it to 6000 TCD from the current season. It has also installed 12 MW of co-generation facility at its plant, which will reduce power cost. Importantly, from this month the company is penetrating the lucrative retail business by introduction of retail packs of 1 Kg, 5 Kg & 10 Kg under the brand name ‘SWEETO’ which is under the process of registration. Moreover to encash the ethanol demand, it is planning to set up a greenfield distillery project at its factory for which the Letter of Intent from Punjab Government has already been obtained. Besides, last December it took over Cosmos Industries having 2500 TCD sugar plant in Sangrur Punjab. In short, the scrip is available extremely cheap and has the potential to double in a year’s time.

It is further spending close to Rs.25 cr. for expanding this facility.
