In the year 2020, 6% blending has been achieved.

The Total project cost at the Subsidiary would be around 8000 lacs. The Debt Equity ratio of the Project would be around 2.50.The construction activities on the project would commence once land is acquired and the requisite environmental clearance is accorded the Government authorities.The project would be operational in around 14 months and its working is expected to be reflected in the accounts of FY23 onwards.This story is provided by NewsVoir.will not be responsible in any way for the content of this article.
