Gujarat Ambuja Expands Hubli Corn Processing Capacity
Gujarat Ambuja Exports Ltd plans to invest ₹333 crore through internal accruals to establish an 850 tonnes per day (TPD) greenfield corn wet milling plant at Hubli, Karnataka, subject to regulatory approvals and clearances. The facility is expected to be commissioned by Q4 FY29 and will be located next to the company’s existing 750 TPD plant.
The new unit will produce 400 TPD of corn starch, 150 TPD of sweeteners and 300 TPD of feed ingredients. Following the expansion, total capacity at Hubli will rise to 1,600 TPD, comprising 700 TPD of corn starch, 400 TPD of sweeteners and derivatives, and 500 TPD of feed ingredients.
At the company level, current corn wet milling capacity stands at 5,600 TPD, with a planned increase to 9,000 TPD by 2030. The expansion is aimed at strengthening integrated manufacturing capabilities, broadening the product portfolio and increasing the company’s domestic and international presence.
The development also supports Gujarat Ambuja Exports’ position as a major player in India’s maize processing industry, alongside its existing businesses in refined soya bean oil, refined palm oil, refined cottonseed oil, starch and derivatives.
