What Purna Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana does

Purna Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana Ltd. is a cooperative sugar factory (Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana) registered in 1970 and operating from Basmathnagar, Hingoli district, Maharashtra, India. The company runs two integrated sugar manufacturing units with a combined crushing capacity of 5,000 TCD (tonnes of cane per day), producing sugar, rectified spirit, ethanol, and co-generated electricity from bagasse. The facility incorporates a 30,000 Ltr/Day distillery, a 20,000 Ltr/Day ethanol plant, and an 18.9 MW co-generation power plant that exports surplus electricity to the grid, with Buckau Wolf equipment and a double sulphitation clarification process supporting sugar manufacturing.

The company's revenue model is commodity-driven and split across four streams: sugar production and sales, rectified spirit production, ethanol sales through tenders, and electricity sales to the distribution grid via its co-generation plant. Sugar is sold to industrial and consumer buyers and distributors; ethanol is procured by industrial and fuel-blending buyers; rectified spirit is supplied to industrial alcohol buyers; and electricity flows to the power distribution grid from bagasse-based generation. Distribution is B2B and tender-based for bulk industrial products, supported by a corporate website presence. The company is governed by a 21-member board under Chairman Shri Jaiprakash R. Salunkhe Dandegaonkar, with cooperative ownership by member-shareholders (predominantly local sugarcane farmers) and no private equity, venture capital, or parent company structure indicated. Banking is anchored by Maharashtra State Co-Op. Bank Ltd., and auditing is handled by P. Sadashiv Patil & Company, Nanded.
