Managed by Wholly-Owned Subsidiary
Navin Fluorine Advanced Sciences Limited (NFASL), the company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, will execute the entire expansion and upgradation plan. NFASL leads NFIL’s advanced chemistry initiatives, driving innovation and expanding capacity in high-value fluorochemicals and specialty products.
