The company is expanding its production capacity and strengthening its backward integration, which is a positive development for its business operations and market position.
Advance Agrolife Limited has enhanced its backward integration capabilities by commencing the production of Pretilachlor Technical and its intermediate, PEDA (2,6-Diethyl-N-(2-propoxyethyl) Aniline). This expansion is located at their Manufacturing Facility I in Bagru, Jaipur, Rajasthan.

The total investment required for this expansion is approximately ₹18.00 crore for PEDA and ₹7.00 crore for Pretilachlor Technical, totaling around ₹25.00 crore. The expansion will be financed through a mix of term loans and internal accruals. The rationale behind this move is to strengthen backward integration, particularly in response to the imposition of anti-dumping duties by the Government of India.
