Dear Sirs,

Sub.: Commencement of manufacturing “Hand Sanitizer” at Distilleries

As you are aware the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has created a global health crisis that has had a deep impact on all walks of life across all sections of Society.

In order to prevent spread of Corona virus, hand sanitizers are used by public, health workers and hospitals, resulting into a manifold spurt in the demand for "Hand Sanitizers" and "Disinfectants" across the globe for which supply source is in acute shortage. Conventionally sanitizer is made through Iso-propyl alcohol which is in short supply looking into increased demand.

The Central and State Governments in India are taking necessary steps to combat the Novel Corona virus. The Union Government decided to allow sanitizer manufacturing through Ethyl Alcohol route across the country and issued directions to give Drug licence and State Excise licence on priority. “Hand Sanitizers” has been included as an Essential Commodity under the Essential Commodities Act up to 30th June, 2020.

Further, the Union Government has asked distilleries and sugar mills to maximize manufacture of hand sanitizers and has permitted around 100 distilleries and more than 500 manufacturers to produce hand sanitizers to meet this increased demand. In the State of Uttar Pradesh also, the state government has issued licences to distilleries and sanitizer-manufacturing companies to increase production to deal with this situation.

The sugar millers across the country took forefront to fulfill the requirement. Sugar too has joined hands to actively participate and support the efforts of the Government of India and State of Uttar Pradesh as well as communities across the country in fighting the COVID- 19 Pandemic.

In terms of Regulation 30, Schedule III and other applicable regulations of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (“SEBI LODR”), we wish to inform that looking into the demand of product "Sanitizer" and inhouse availability of raw material i.e. Ethyl Alcohol, advisory of Government to maximize production of sanitizer and endeavour to be part of nationwide exercise and contribute to fight COVID-19 Pandemic, the Company has made necessary arrangements for bulk production and bulk packing of "Hand sanitizer", initially at two (out of six) of its Distilleries located at Gagnauli (District Muzaffarnagar) and Khambarkhera (District Lakhimpur Kheri) both in the State of Uttar Pradesh for which requisite licences and approvals have been obtained.
