Operational Highlights & More

India’s ethanol blending in petrol reached 18.93% by June 30, 2025, reflecting strong market growth supported by stable prices and grain diversification. The sector, valued at USD 3 billion in 2024, is projected to reach USD 10.07 billion by 2033, growing at a 14.4% CAGR. Gulshan Polyols operates plants with capacities of 60 KLPD and 500 KLPD in Madhya Pradesh and 250 KLPD in Assam.

Gulshan Polyols Limited is a leading Indian manufacturer of grain and mineral-based specialty chemicals like ethanol, sorbitol, and calcium carbonate. The company’s primary focus is on undertaking all necessary measures to maintain, excel, and expand its business operations while ensuring stakeholder interests.  

Moreover, Gulshan Polyols runs advanced grain processing units in Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh. The Gujarat site manufactures sorbitol solution and liquid glucose, securing Star Export House status for its derivative exports. The Uttar Pradesh facility, built on 50 acres, delivers native starch, fructose syrup, and calcium carbonate.

Additionally, Gulshan Polyols’ mineral processing division runs state-of-the-art facilities across six states, manufacturing a range of products including calcium carbonate and coated/uncoated minerals. Plants in Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, West Bengal, and Madhya Pradesh deliver key industrial inputs. Their diversified footprint supports high utilization, reliable supply, and tailored offerings for leading domestic and regional clients.

Gulshan Polyols expects solid momentum in FY26, with its ethanol segment aiming for full capacity and hitting the 25 Cr litre production mark. The mineral division continues to run stably at full utilization, supporting consistent results. However, the grain segment faces margin pressure due to domestic oversupply in sorbitol and starch, challenging profitability for now.

The company reported strong quarterly growth, with revenue rising 30% from Rs 455 crore in Q1FY25 to Rs 593 crore in Q1FY26. Net profit also grew 30%, reaching Rs 13 crore from Rs 10 crore, reflecting improved operational efficiency and healthy business momentum.
