We are operating three grid-connected large capacity co-generation plants and three smaller co-generation capacities (incidental co-generation facilities) at our five sugar units - Khatauli, Deoband, Chandanpur, Milak Narayanpur and Sabitgarh. The power thus produced helps us meet our captive requirements, while the surplus is exported to Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited (UPPCL), with whom we have power purchase agreements for all our co-generation facilities. We use the latest Distributed Control System (DCS) at our plants, which are operated by highly experienced and skilled manpower. This helps us ensure trouble-free efficient operations with high uptime and reliable operations, along with very high operating efficiencies.

Excellence rooted in trusted relationships

Strong and deep-rooted relationships are at the core of our strategic approach in the Sugar segment. We have in place robust and close supply chain relationships with leading multinational Beverage, Food & FMCG and Pharmaceutical companies, as well as Confectionery producers. These help us ensure sustained business growth and value creation for our stakeholders. What really gives us a powerful edge in this business is our robust Sugarcane Development Programme, founded on our close relationships with our 3,00,000+ farmer associates, whose social and economic empowerment is an overarching commitment we have ingrained in our organisational value-system.

We share the confidence and trust of more than 3,00,000 sugarcane growers as a result of our innovative interventions and initiatives, which are continuously helping them enhance their livelihood and lifestyles.

ExpandingFarmer Outreach

We engage closely with the farmers in our Sugarcane command areas, and work relentlessly with them to boost their farm yields. We incentivise and motivate the sugarcane growers to adopt the latest technologies and best practices. We provide them with high-yielding seeds, technological support, training and knowledge in best agronomic practices, to help increase their sugarcane yield and profitability. We teach them new techniques to nurture soil nutrients, improve cropping practices and ensure protection from disease. We support them through the cultivation and cropping lifecycle with continuous surveillance, real-time data capturing, as well as tools to control the cut-to-crush time. We also facilitate them in procuring high-quality and/or new varieties of sugarcane seeds, as well as pesticides and fungicides, on subsidised rates at our outlets.

Our Soil Health Programme is designed to help them assess the availability of macro and micro nutrients in the soil through planned collection of soil samples, followed by their testing and analysis at certified soil laboratories. Extension tools, such as pamphlets, wall paintings etc., are used to create awareness among farmers for balanced usage of soil nutrients. Based on the soil health status, we facilitate supply of macro and micro nutrients, including some on subsidised costs, through the agro input outlets at our units.
