About Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals

Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals Ltd (GSFC) manufactures various fertilisers and industrial products like plastics and synthetic rubbers, and man-made fibres. The company was incorporated in 1962, and its plants started the production of fertilisers in 1967. GSFC was listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) in 1966.

During 2002-2014, the company witnessed a slump in prices and demand for all products. There was also a shortage of gas that resulted in the use of costly LSHS and Naphtha.

GSFC produced higher quantities of Nylon-6 between 2015 and 2021 to meet rising demand. During the same period, GSFC strengthened its production capacity by establishing a new 45 MTPD Nylon-6-II plant. The plant started commercial production in July 2016.

In 2022, the company won the HSE EXCELLENCE IN CHEMICAL Award for its Baroda Unit, which Synnex Group organised. In 2020, GSFC received the “SKOCH Order of Merit” Award.
