BCL Industries Bags Massive Ethanol Order For FY26 From OMCs; Over 1 Lakh KL Allocation Confirmed

Under the Ethanol Blending Program for the Ethanol Supply Year (ESY) 2025-2026, BCL Industries Limited and its subsidiary Svaksha Distillery Limited secured a significant order from Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs). A total of 1,07,409 kiloliters (KL) of ethanol have been allotted to the organization to be distributed among different OMC locations around the country.

Out of this, BCL Industries received an allocation of 60,183 KL, while Svaksha Distillery secured 47,226 KL, including 17,894 KL from Reliance Industries.

The allocations are spread over four quarters of FY26, marking a strong continuation of the company's participation in India's ethanol blending initiative and reinforcing its leadership in the renewable energy and biofuel sector.

Meanwhile, with the issuance of 50,077 International Renewable Energy Certificates (I-RECs) for renewable energy produced between January and September 2025 at its 10 MW captive biomass-based power plant in Bathinda, Punjab, BCL Industries Limited has reached a significant sustainability milestone.

The plant operates using a 60 TPH biomass-fired boiler fueled primarily by paddy straw-helping reduce carbon emissions and prevent stubble burning, as per a stock exchange filing.

BCL's commitment to clean energy and environmental sustainability is reaffirmed by the certification, which was granted under the internationally recognized I-REC Standard and made possible in India by the International Carbon Exchange (ICX). In order to further contribute to India's green energy and circular economy objectives, the firm will continue to receive I-RECs on a pro rata basis for future renewable power output.

Financially speaking, BCL Industries' net profit increased 4.52% to Rs 28.90 crore in the September 2025 quarter compared to Rs 27.65 crore in the September 2024 quarter. In Q2FY26, sales fell 4.14% to Rs 691.41 crore from Rs 721.28 crore in Q2FY25.

Key decisions from BCL Industries Ltd.'s Board meeting on December 4, 2025, have been made public. One of these decisions is the approval of the sale of the company's land at Hazi Ratan Link Road, Bathinda, with Mr. Rajinder Mittal, Managing Director, designated to handle the transaction and associated paperwork. In order to make Svaksha Distillery Limited a wholly owned subsidiary, the Board also approved the acquisition of the remaining 25% of the company for about Rs 55 crore. This strategic action seeks to improve operational synergies and solidify BCL's position as a leader in the grain-based ethanol industry. With a turnover of Rs 845 crore in FY 2024-2025, Svaksha Distillery will now be fully integrated into BCL's business structure. The transaction is anticipated to be finalized by June 30, 2026.

One of the largest producers of agro-processing in India, BCL Industries Limited operates a variety of businesses related to rice milling, edible oils, grain-based distilleries, and real estate. The company is a member of the Mittal Group and is publicly listed.
