<div class="row two-col"> <div class="col-md-6 col-1"> <p style="text-align:justify">Hindustan Organic Chemicals Limited (HOC) was set up by the Government of India in 1960 with the objective of attaining self-reliance in basic organic chemical&rsquo;s needs. In fact this was the first endeavor to indigenize manufacture of basic chemicals and to reduce country&rsquo;s dependence on import of vital organic chemicals. HOC, started as small chemical unit, and expanded to a multiunit company with two units at Rasayani and Kochi and one subsidiary unit. The Rasayani unit was closed in the year 2018 due to nonviability of its old plants.INI</p> </div> <div class="col-md-6 col-2"> <p style="text-align:justify">It was expected that indigenous manufacture of these chemical intermediates will give impetus to downstream industries resulting in setting up of chemical units and achieving self-sufficiency for the country in this area. This objective of setting up HOC has been achieved and at present more than 500 units based on HOC&rsquo;s products have been set up all over the country which have not only succeeded in meeting the goal of self-sufficiency but also entered the international markets earning precious foreign exchange by exporting chemicals, dyes and drugs.</p> </div> </div> <p>&nbsp;</p>
