Paradeep Phosphates Limited (PPL) today announced the merger of Mangalore Chemicals & Fertilizers Limited (MCFL) with Paradeep Phosphates Limited (PPL), effective from 16th October, 2025.
The merger strengthens PPL’s presence in southern India while complementing its established markets in the north, west, central, and eastern regions—further reinforcing its pan-India coverage. Together, the combined entity will benefit from a wider product portfolio and a more efficient supply chain. By pooling the assets and expertise of both companies, PPL can now offer a broader crop-specific fertilizer mix, better inventory planning, and optimized distribution through an extensive network of dealers and partners. The integration also brings economies of scale in production and logistics, helping reduce costs and improve service quality for farmers and customers across the country.
Anchored in the shared belief of “Farmer First,” the merger strengthens PPL’s long-standing commitment to advancing Indian agriculture and ensuring that every step of growth translates into value for the farming community.
Mr. Suresh Krishnan, Managing Director & CEO of Paradeep Phosphates, said, “This merger marks a significant milestone in PPL’s growth journey. Together, we can operate at a larger scale and offer a stronger, more agile, and diverse product portfolio. Our expanded distribution network and streamlined supply chain will enable us to serve farmers more effectively across India. Guided by our shared belief in putting the farmer first, this combined strength positions us for future growth and reinforces our commitment to delivering lasting value to all stakeholders.”
