Since power cost accounts for almost 60% of total raw material cost in Caustic production, captive power plant provides power at lower cost resulting in high margins. The Dahej facility is strategically located due to its proximity to the port, providing ease of importing coal and proximity to chemical manufacturers. The Company is supplying Caustic and Chlorine via pipeline to select buyers, thus substantially reducing its logistics costs. The Company has recently changed the membrane of its existing Caustic Soda Plant. The Company s new Caustic Potash facility at Dahej of 60 TPD capacity which commenced production at the beginning of the year is ramping up slowly due to technical issues, which have now been sorted out.
