Commenting on the Results, Samir Somaiya, CMD said, “FY25 was a defining year for Godavari Biorefineries, showcasing our agility, disciplined execution, and strategic progress. Our Bio-based Chemicals segment delivered over 2x growth in EBITDA, propelled by our shift toward high-value, sustainable solutions and enhanced operational efficiencies. We also achieved a record cane crushing of 24.65 lakh tonnes for sugar season 2024-25 at our Sameerwadi facility. The restoration of the ethanol blending programme using sugarcane juice enabled us to better utilize our ethanol capacity during the crushing season. Looking ahead, our 200 KLPD grain/maize distillery is progressing as planned and is expected to be commissioned in Q4 FY26. We are also exploring multi-feedstock options for greater flexibility, while undertaking debottlenecking and expansion initiatives focused on specialty products. FY25 has laid a solid foundation for future growth, and we remain committed to delivering value through innovation, sustainability, and disciplined growth.”
