Filatex India’s Board of Directors has approved a large-scale expansion project at its Dahej, Gujarat unit, signaling a strategic move to strengthen its production capacity. The expansion includes an additional 19,800 MTPA of Partially Oriented Yarn (POY), 14,400 MTPA of Fully Drawn Yarn (FDY), and 14,400 MTPA of Draw Textured Yarn (DTY). With a total estimated investment of Rs 155 crore, the project is expected to be operational by June 2026.
In a further push toward sustainable energy, the company has also announced an investment of Rs 24 crore in a new hybrid power project. The power facility, which will be set up in Gujarat, will be developed, owned, and operated by Torrent Power or its wholly owned subsidiary. This project is anticipated to be commissioned by September 2025, aligning with Filatex India’s commitment to green energy initiatives and cost optimization.
The expansion is expected to enhance Filatex India’s market presence in the textile sector while also contributing to sustainability through renewable energy integration. With these strategic investments, the company continues to reinforce its position as a leading manufacturer of polyester yarn in India.
