The company is presently engaged in executing a 175 KLPD distillery project at its Dwarikesh Dham (DD) unit which is expected to be commissioned by the end of first quarter of the next financial year. The setting of new distillery will be a new milestone in the history of the company as its operations will be seamlessly & optimally integrated.
