During the year under review, the company invested about Rs.220.000 Millions in capacity building to increase the corn grinding and finished goods production capacities at its existing plants. As a result, the finished goods production capacity increased from 125000 MT per annum in 2004-05 to 175000 MT per annum following incremental capacity commencement from February 2006.

 

Further, the Board approved the Company’s proposal to set up a new unit at Pantnagar in Uttaranchal having a corn grinding capacity of 500 tpd at an estimated cost of Rs.1100.000 Millions. The Company acquired the required land, embarked on construction and expects the project to go into production in February 2007.

Press Report

 

Riddhi Siddhi Gluco to expand capacity

 

RIDDHI Siddhi Gluco Biols Ltd, the country's largest starch and starch derivatives manufacturer, said it is enhancing its maize-crushing capacity to around 2,85,000 tonnes a year from 1,65,000 tonnes.



This is estimated to cost Rs 300.000 Millions and would be funded partly through the proposed preferential allotment, term borrowings from banks and internal accruals. The capacity expansion is to be completed by January 2006.

 

The shareholders at the EGM held on November 12 had approved the company’s proposal to issue.1.000 Millions shares to the promoter group and an investor group, at Rs 115 a share. The funds so raised would be deployed in the capital expenditure plan, repayment of loans and additional working capital requirement.



"The ongoing capex plan will help us consolidate position as market leader in the starch segment. Also, their major clients are in massive growth phase and have committed long-term orders to us. The biopolymer division at Pondicherry, recently acquired from HLL, has stabilised operations and the management is considering capital expenditure in this division as well. Apart from topline impact expected, the capex plan would also lead to healthy profitability," Mr Ganpatraj L. Chowdhary, Managing Director, Riddhi Siddhi, said in a press release.

 

 

Riddhi Siddhi to expand product range To use HLL bio-polymer unit as R&D centre

Mr Ganpatraj Chowdhary, Managing Director, Riddhi Siddhi Gluco Biols Ltd, at a press conference in Chennai on Wednesday. — Bijoy Ghosh



Chennai , Aug. 10

 

RIDDHI Siddhi Gluco Biols Ltd, which has acquired HLL's functional bio-polymer unit in Pondicherry, says that the unit will be its centre for developing new starch-based products to expand its product and market range.

Also in the pipeline is a Greenfield project to produce high value starch-based products and derivatives.

The company now makes starch-based products from corn and tapioca for food processing, pharmaceutical, textile and paper industries. These industries are going through a buoyant phase, which is expected to translate into a healthy demand for Riddhi Siddhi's products.



Outlining Riddhi Siddhi's plans at a press conference today, its Managing Director, Mr Ganpatraj L. Chowdhary, said that following the acquisition the company can now manufacture value-added starch-based products and derivatives for paper and textile industries. Earlier, its strength was in manufacturing starch products for pharmaceuticals and food processors and for low value starch products for the paper industry.

The acquisition of the Pondicherry unit is a forward integration for the company, which hopes to enter into value-added product lines, such as denim grade starch and specialised products for copier paper manufacturers. It is also strengthening its research and development wing at this location to develop more product lines.

Its other manufacturing facilities are in Gokak, Karnataka (which is its largest unit with a capacity of 500 tonnes a day) and in Viramgam, Ahmedabad. It has a total capacity to produce about 1.35 lakh tonnes starch a year.

In addition, by November it will finalise the details for a new project at one more location. While not wanting to share the details for now, Mr Chowdhary said that investments would be sizeable as starch-based units of this type were capital intensive.

 

Starch and starch-derivatives represent a multi-billion dollar market internationally and the company is also focusing on the export markets, he said.



Its turnover of over Rs 2000.000 Millions is set to grow to Rs 2500.000 Millions in the current year with exports likely to double to Rs 160.000 Millions. It exports corn starch powder, liquid glucose and corn gluten meal. Its markets are West Asia, Japan, South East Asia, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal.

 

The company's products include liquid glucose, dextrose monohydrate, maltodextrin, dextrose syrup, high maltose corn syrup and by-products like corn gluten meal and enriched fibre.
