Commenting on the appointments, Mr Vimal Alawadhi, MD, BAL, said, “At this crucial time when BAL is on the cusp of explosive growth, robust R&D is of utmost importance for us. The move of tapping into the R&D veterans embraces an effort to ramp up our innovations powered by R&D. To partner our nation in the quest to become ‘atmanirbhar’ in the field of agrochemicals, we are focusing on the development of active ingredients/intermediates that have recently come out of product patent and are also on a growth curve in India and globally. We aim to develop patentable technologies that utilise safer and greener chemistry and are completely backwards integrated starting from the bulk. This strategy will help us in becoming self-reliant and, in the process, reduce dependence on other countries and imports,” he added further.
It is worth mentioning that renowned R&D experts Dr Rajendra Kharul, Dr Uday Gokhale, Dr Rajendra Jagdhane and Dr Mahadev Patil have recently joined BCSPL.
