Following its previous notification on December 5, 2025, the disclosure has been made in accordance with Regulation 46(2)(oa) of SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015, according to the exchange filing issued to BSE and NSE.

With its strategic acquisition of the U.S.-based CrudeChem Technologies Group, a top manufacturer of specialty oilfield chemicals renowned for its cutting-edge fluid additives and all-encompassing solutions for the global oil and gas industry, Fineotex Chemical Limited (FCL) announced a significant global achievement on December 5.

The transaction, which was carried out through FCL's subsidiary, represents a revolutionary step toward bolstering its technological leadership and broadening its worldwide reach, as explained in the company's press statement. With a world-class technical lab in Texas and facilities in Midland and Brookshire, CrudeChem Technologies, founded by three industry veterans with extensive experience in multinational corporations, has established a solid reputation for providing efficient, ESG-compliant, and environmentally responsible chemical solutions.

This acquisition allows Fineotex a foothold in high-growth prospects in the midstream, refining, and water-treatment sectors of the oilfield chemicals industry in North America, which is projected to reach $11.5 billion in 2025. According to Executive Director Sanjay Tibrewala, this action puts Fineotex in a position to use CCT's strong relationships with consumers, technological expertise, and sustainability-driven strategy to develop a $200 million oilfield chemicals business over the upcoming years. Fineotex is a globally recognized leader in specialized performance chemicals, with operations in over 70 countries and state-of-the-art production facilities in Malaysia and India.

By entering into final agreements for the acquisition of majority equity stakes in four U.S.-based speciality chemical companies-CrudeChem Technology LLC, FrackMex Equipment and Services LLC, Lonestar Technoboost LLC, and Oil Pro Advantage Inc.-Fineotex Chemical Limited recently announced a significant expansion move through its wholly owned subsidiary, Fineotex Biotex Healthguard FZE.

Fineotex's strategic plan in the speciality chemicals industry is strengthened by this multi-entity acquisition, particularly in the rapidly expanding oil and gas sector. Together, these companies have large operational footprints throughout the United States, extensive relationships with significant international energy producers, and strong capabilities in cutting-edge, high-performance chemical technologies. Each organization contributes significant scale, technical depth, and market presence to Fineotex's worldwide portfolio, with total turnovers ranging from millions to tens of millions of dollars throughout FY 2022-2025.

Within a month, the acquisitions-valued at up to USD 1.10 million for CrudeChem, USD 1,79,200 for FrackMex, USD 4,480 for Lonestar Technoboost, and USD 8,960 for Oil Pro Advantage-will be finalized through cash consideration, giving Fineotex a 53.33% controlling stake in each company. The action is in line with Fineotex's long-term goals of growing its oilfield chemicals business globally, boosting the USD 11.5 billion speciality chemicals industry in North America, and reaffirming its dedication to innovation, sustainability, and top-notch solutions in the energy ecosystem.

Ashish Kacholia had a holding in Fineotex Chemical (FCL), which was stated to be around 2.62% (about 30.00 lakh shares) as of late 2025. However, as part of portfolio realignment, he somewhat reduced his stake in the September 2025 quarter.
