It was
indeed a moment of pride for all of us as a family. Highly educated engineers after having trained and gotten work experience in US come back with a mission nearly 3 decades ago and later joined by their children to set up a project in unfriendly environment where entrepreneurship breeding is not a norm , is really commendable. Many talk about it but very few can really do it for many reasons.
They would never compromise on values for pursuing their goals.
It’s India’s biggest plant of these products which have worldwide application in antacid formulations both the liquid and the tablet forms. It has an installed capacity of 30 tonnes per year which means that it can cater to 33 percent of India’s annual consumption. It amounts to 8 billion doses!!!
Best part this project is that it’s conceived, designed, erected and implemented by our young generation Dr. Rahul and Mr. Dhananjay!!!
