Praj Industries has bagged an order worth Rs.25
crore for setting up a distillery attached to Bajaj Hindusthan's Kinanuni sugar
unit at Meerut in Uttar Pradesh.
The distillery will have a capacity to produce
160 kilo litres per day of total spirit, including a provision to produce 150
klpd of neutral spirit. This will be the largest ENA (extra neutral alcohol)
plant in the country.
This is the third order for Praj Industries from
Bajaj Hindusthan -- the earlier two pertaining to the Gorakhnath and Palta
units, both located in Uttar Pradesh.
In January 2005, Praj Industries received orders
for setting up distillery units from Rana Sugars in Punjab and JHV Sugars in
Uttar Pradesh.
