Our sustained volume momentum, combined with improving margins, positions Fermenta well for continued value creation

We remain focused on scaling our core human nutrition business while exploring strategic opportunities Our INR 110 crore capex at Dahej will establish commercial-scale production of plant-based Vitamin D3—for which we hold Indian patent protection—alongside expanded enzyme capacity and new Vitamin D3 derivatives. This strengthens our position as one of the world's leading fully integrated Vitamin D3 manufacturers while positioning us at the forefront of sustainable biocatalysis."
