The company will raise about Rs 3,500 crore from the banks to finance the project and the remaining funds will be raised internally.

The new plant will have capacity of about 1.27 million tonnes of urea per annum and it will also produce ammonia. Moreover, the company has already got pre-Public Investment Board (PIB) clearance for the project.

Meanwhile, the company is planning to set up a subsidiary ‘RCF Videsh’ that will specifically focus on ventures and assets abroad where feedstock natural gas is cheap or raw materials like phosphate are available in abundance.

Furthermore, the company is also likely to get the ‘Navaratna’ status this year, a move that will provide it with greater financial autonomy.
