The Bajaj Group is a leading presence with
diversified interests in

Infrastructure sector including Power, Coal
mining and Real Estate; FMCG, and Ethanol. In
January 2011, the Group also signed an MOU
to develop a port on the coast of Gujarat.
Bajaj Hindusthan Limited, the Group’s flagship
company, was set up in November 1931.
The Bajaj Group
was born out of
India’s struggle for

80 years ago, the Founder of what is today the Bajaj Group

been especially noteworthy had the individual not been

and close associate of Mahatma Gandhi. Equally important is
the historical backdrop: the turbulent time when the Indian
freedom struggle was gaining momentum.
set up a sugar factory.
Setting up the factory was for Jamnalal a combination of his
talents as an industrialist and his conviction (like Gandhi) in
the power of swadesi to transform the country’s fortunes.
At that time, there were barely thirty sugar factories in all
of India, which made his new venture an answer to a
national need.
The new century has seen a rapid expansion of the Group’s
flagship sugar company Bajaj Hindusthan Ltd as well
as diverse other business interests. Today, the Group’s
continued prominence in the world of business is matched
by it’s unbroken tradition of philanthropy, keeping intact
the beliefs and vision of the Founder.

largest producer of green fuel ethanol in India, besides being
among the top four sugar manufacturers in the world.

A farmer

company
We have touched the lives of over 5 million farmers directly
and indirectly, and along with other sugar producers in UP,
are proud to have helped farmers in the state more than
double their incomes from Rs 57 billion in 2008 - 09 to
Rs 121 billion in 2009 -10. For this year, it could be as high
as Rs 135 billion.

supplying crucial raw material.
Certain BHL locations also provide treated spent water
for irrigation to nearby farmers. Workshops for farmer
associations and `samities’ are frequently held to educate the
farmers of new developments in cane farming techniques,
improved seed varieties, the plant’ s cane crushing schedule
for the next season, etc.
Another initiative towards improving the quality of farmers’
lives has been the introduction of credit facilities against cane
supplies and the introduction of ATM facilities at the State
Bank of India at each BHL unit.

BHL deeply values relationships it has
cultivated and nurtured over the
decades with the farming community
of Uttar Pradesh.
Sustainability
as a culture
This eco-efficient approach has also been the key driver in
expanding our portfolio of by products that generate wealth
out of sugarcane and its waste.
We recycle bagasse residue to generate
428 MW of power. After meeting our captive needs, we
supply 105 MW to the UP state grid.
POWER CO-GENERATION:
ETHANOL: We have made pioneering efforts in the area of
renewable fuel and are India’s largest and the world’s sixth
largest producer of ethanol.
Our biogas plants for distillery effluents at Kinauni,
Palia, Gola, Gangnauli, Khambarkhera and Rudauli are setting
standards for distillery facilities across the country.
BIOGAS:
IMPROVING THE SOIL PROFILE: We innovatively use sugarcane
residue to complement chemical fertilisers. Low cost
bio-compost manufactured from press mud – a water waste
product – improves soil texture and the carbon / nitrogen
ratio.
BHL has installed wet scrubbers to restrict
emissions and a third of the plants are developed as a green
belt to mitigate the effects of any emissions.

Wealth
from waste
It is also one of only two companies in the world to
manufacture PB and MDF from bagasse.
BETPL, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of BHL, has set up
3 plants in Uttar Pradesh, the combined capacity of which is
210,000 cubic metres per annum. Our products are widely used
by furniture manufacturers, architects, interior designers and
contractors, and have been awarded the EcoMark by the
Bureau of Indian Standards.

Using bagasse residue, Bajaj Eco-tec
Products Limited (BETPL) is now the
largest manufacturer of particle

the group is diversifying further
by expanding it’s power generation
capacity as well as making a foray
into the coal market through it’s
Indonesian subsidiary.
BHL through a SPV, Bajaj Energy Pvt. Ltd. is setting up new coal
based power generation plants of 90 MW each in the vicinity
of 5 of its existing sugar units. These new projects are to be
completed this year.
Besides this, through two other SPVs, Lalitpur Power
Generation Co. Ltd and Bajaj Power Generation Pvt. Ltd,
the company has also embarked on developing supercritical
thermal power projects in UP which will produce around 4,000
megawatts of power, ready for commissioning in 2014-15.
These projects are based at Lalitpur and Chitrakoot districts.
The company aims to eventually enhance the total power
generation capacity of the Group to 8,500 MW.

Kailash Parbat Cooling oil and Bajaj Black Tooth Powder.
Bajaj Corp’s sales are matched by it’s strong balance sheet and
its turnover has touched USD 80 million in 2010-11. Given its
rapidly growing consumer brand presence, the company is
projected to attain a turnover of USD 100 million in 2011-12.

A deep-rooted
sense of social
responsibility
Corporate Social Responsibility is a
concept relatively new in India, but
being a socially responsible Company
is part of the Bajaj Group’s DNA.
Whether through schemes to better the lives of sugarcane
farmers or through other initiatives to enhance communities
and livelihoods, the Group devotes a significant proportion of
it’s resources to the betterment of Indian society.
The Kamalnayan Jamnalal Bajaj Foundation (KJBF) chose
Wardha as it’s centre because of the close connection the
Bajaj family has had with Wardha from the days the Group’s
founder, Jamnalal Bajaj worked closely with Mahatma Gandhi,
and has initiated and integrated community development
programs for stressed farmers in the suicide- prone zone of
Wardha district in the Vidarbha region, focusing particularly
on water harvesting and its efficient utilization. KJBF has initiated a number of development interventions
in 200 villages of Wardha, which focus on community
empowerment through enhancing awareness and special
training centres and elicits the participation of the local
community in these efforts. It also promotes alternate agro
based livelihood opportunities such as dairy farming, organic
farming, horticulture and biogas.
All these programs are being planned and implemented
through an experienced professional team under the
Kamalnayan Jamnalal Bajaj Foundation based at Wardha.
