India Pesticides Limited, a key player in the agrochemical manufacturing sector, has announced the successful commissioning of the next phase of backward integration for PEDA, an intermediate used in the production of Pretilachlor Technical.
With this development, the company has expanded its installed capacity for PEDA to 6,000 metric tonnes (MT) per annum. The increase is supported by ongoing investments in in-house research and development efforts aimed at enhancing manufacturing efficiency and production capabilities.
India Pesticides also shared its plan to further raise PEDA production capacity by an additional 2,500 MT per annum. This expansion is targeted for completion by the end of Q2 FY26. Once completed, the total PEDA manufacturing capacity will reach approximately 8,500 MT per annum.
This initiative aligns with the Government of India's 'Aatma Nirbhar Bharat' objective, which encourages self-reliant domestic manufacturing and reduced dependency on imports.
India Pesticides continues to focus on operational efficiency, capacity building, and strengthening its position in both domestic and international markets through strategic manufacturing expansions.
