Nectar Lifesciences

The company has entered into an inter-corporate loan agreement worth up to Rs 100 crore with Avensis Exports. Avensis Exports is a subsidiary of the company.

Balaji Amines

Balaji Amines is currently experiencing significant logistics disruptions in the procurement of ammonia, one of the key raw materials used in the manufacture of methylamines, ethylamines, and their derivatives, due to the ongoing war in the Middle East region. The situation has arisen due to the non-availability of ammonia.

The disruption has adversely affected the supply of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)—a key input used for the production of ammonia by most fertiliser manufacturers in India. Consequently, several ammonia manufacturers have expressed their inability to supply the product during this period due to force majeure conditions.

Therefore, some of the company’s plants are presently non-operational. At present, the financial and operational impact of the shortage of this key raw material cannot be estimated.
