30, 2026 - Tata Projects, one of India’s leading technology-led
engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) companies and a key member
of the Tata Group, has secured a significant EPC contract from Gujarat State
Fertilizers & Chemicals Limited (GSFC) for the development of an integrated
Phosphoric Acid–Sulphuric Acid (PA–SA) complex at Sikka, Jamnagar, Gujarat.
The contract marks an important milestone in Tata Projects’ expansion into
specialised process industries and reinforces its position as an EPC partner
for complex industrial infrastructure. The proposed complex will
comprise a 600 metric tonnes per day (MTPD) phosphoric acid plant and a
1,800 MTPD sulphuric acid plant, along with associated utilities and offsite
infrastructure. A key component of GSFC’s strategic expansion and
backward-integration programme, the project is designed to strengthen
captive raw-material availability for phosphatic fertiliser production,
reduce exposure to imported inputs and enhance long-term operational
resilience. For Tata Projects, the contract represents a strategic
advancement in its process-industry business, further strengthening its
capabilities in delivering technically demanding industrial facilities.
Rajiv Menon, President & Chief Growth & Strategy Officer, Tata Projects,
added, “Built on sustained engagement with GSFC, the award demonstrates our
ability to compete for and secure complex industrial projects through
differentiated solutions and a compelling value proposition. As we expand
our presence in chemicals, fertilisers and other specialised process
industries, our priority remains to build a high-quality, diversified order
book anchored in technical expertise, execution credibility and enduring
customer partnerships.” The scope of the project involves the
integrated development of phosphoric acid and sulphuric acid manufacturing
facilities, supported by the necessary utilities and offsite systems. Given
the interdependent nature of these operations, successful delivery will
require close coordination across engineering disciplines, procurement,
construction planning and commissioning interfaces. Tata Projects’
integrated EPC approach will be central to managing these complexities while
ensuring efficient project delivery. The award further advances Tata
Projects’ strategy of expanding its presence across high-value industrial
segments, complementing its established capabilities in power, metals and
mining, oil and gas, clean energy and advanced manufacturing. By
strengthening its participation in the chemicals and fertilisers sector, the
company aims to deepen its process-engineering expertise, diversify its
industrial portfolio and create sustained value through technically
differentiated EPC solutions. Annual Report 2023 - As a part of backward integration, your Company is considering to install 600 MTPD Phosphoric Acid Plant and 1800 MTPD Sulphuric Acid Plant at Sikka Unit. M/s TECI, Tunisia is selected as Technology supplier for Phosphoric Acid Plant while M/s Chemetics, Canada is selected as Technology supplier for Sulphuric Acid Plant. Basic Engineering activities are under progress by technology suppliers. |
