Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Sigachi Industries has begun civil works for a new 12,000 MTPA Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) plant at its Dahej SEZ facility in Gujarat, expected to be operational within 9 months. Once complete, total installed MCC capacity will rise to 30,000 MTPA, reinforcing its position as the largest MCC manufacturer in India. The announcement also references a recent 'tragedy' and 'incident' at the company's Pashamylaram unit, with management calling it a 'moment of deep sorrow' while pledging to rebuild with enhanced safety. The Dahej expansion is framed as a key step toward uninterrupted supply to customers across 65+ countries. New spray dryer equipment is being procured in consultation with safety experts, signalling a safety-first redesign approach.
The capacity addition is positive for long-term revenue growth, but the prominent reference to the Pashamylaram incident may keep sentiment cautious. Investors should watch for updates from the investigation committee and any regulatory action, which could influence near-term stock price movement.
