MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF CHEMICALS & FERTILIZERS (SHRI K. RAHMAN KHAN)
(a) Names of the fertilizers units, their installed capacity and %age capacity utilization is annexed.
(b) Annual production of all units in the last three years is annexed.
(c) The production capacity of nitrogenous and phosphatic fertilizers is
matching with the current level of consumption in the country. Imports are
generally resorted when there is a gap in supply-demand position. A high
level Steering Committee of Secretaries (SCOS) is regularly monitoring
production, demand and availability of all major fertilizers. As and when
there is likelihood of demand-supply gap, a decision to import is being
taken by SCOS either on government account for urea or through
agencies in case of DAP, the decontrolled fertilizer. However, entire
quantity of MOP is imported since there are no known exploitable reserves
of potash in the country.
(d) Following units have become inoperative:-
1. Fertilizer Corporation of India Ltd.: Gorakhpur
