SPIC reveals Rs 19 billion investment strategy for 2 years

Southern Petrochemical Industries Corporation (SPIC) announced that it has committed to investing Rs 19 billion over the next two years as part of its strategic group expansion plans. The company revealed this commitment during the recently concluded two-day Global Investors Meet 2024.

According to the investment plan disclosed at the meeting, SPIC has designated Rs 9.7 billion to overhaul the existing urea plant, increase capacity, and establish a 150 MTPD Green Ammonia Plant. Additionally, the group company, Greenstar Fertilizers, has allocated Rs 6.4 billion for the establishment of a water-soluble fertilizer mixing plant in Chennai, a 2,500 MTPA Sulphuric acid plant, and the refurbishment of existing plants in Tuticorin.
