The Company started commercial production of its Distillery Unit of 60 KL capacity at District Tarn Taran w.e.f. 2nd March, 2006. Originally commissioned to manufacture industrial alcohol/rectified spirit, the distillery was upgraded to produce ethanol.

In due course of time the distillery was expanded as demand for ethanol grew multifold and resulting, the current capacity of the plant was at 225 KLPD.During 2007, it expanded co-generation of power increasing its capacity from 20MW to 30 MW in its Power Unit at Village Buttar Seviyan, Punjab.
