For Ramco this is a value added step towards forward integration and will enable customers to get consistent quality of weaved yarn. The plant, which will be operational by the second quarter of 2019-2020, will require an investment of Rs 250 crores and will have an initial production capacity of ten million meters of greige yarn dyed fabrics per annum. In addition to this, the new facility will also cater to the fiber dyeing needs of Ramco melange products.
