We have a very good traction from customers especially the rubber and tyre customers for additional green tyres where it’s partly added to replace carbon black. We are putting up 50,000 ton in two streams of 25,000 ton each, and this capex will be funded through internal accruals. The estimated amount is about ₹400 crore and it’ll take about thirty months to execute. We will start the execution plan shortly and it has a good return profile including return on capital”.
