Setting up a maize-based ethanol plant in India offers a profitable opportunity aligned with the government's ethanol blending program. Grain-based ethanol is increasingly preferred due to its lower water use and year-round availability. Our licensing-ready ethanol plant model covers everything from fermentation and distillation to OMC supply contracts. While fuel-grade ethanol export is restricted, the DDGS feed export from India remains a high-demand, profitable byproduct. Whether you're looking to understand ethanol production from corn or the complete ethanol distillation unit licensing process, this guide provides the roadmap. Read More...

India produces more rice than almost any other country on earth. And somewhere between the paddy field and the dinner plate, millions of tonnes get fractured during milling, too small to sell as whole rice, too starchy to ignore. This is broken rice, and for the past few years, India's ethanol industry has been quietly building an entire feedstock strategy around it.

That's not an accident. It comes down to intersecting pressures: rising ethanol blending targets, volatile maize prices, and the plain arithmetic of starch yield per rupee spent. This article explains why broken rice has become central to India's biofuel supply chain, what the market looks like today, and where things are heading.
