Reliance to Invest Rs 11.56 Bn in Tamil Nadu Plant

Reliance Consumer Products has announced plans to set up an integrated manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu, with an investment of Rs 11.56 billion, marking a major step in the state’s industrial expansion drive.
The 60-acre facility will be located at the State Industries Promotion Corporation of Tamil Nadu's (SIPCOT) Allikulam Industrial Park in Thoothukudi district. It will produce a wide range of consumer goods, including regional snacks, biscuits, spices, wheat flour (atta), and edible oils.
Over the next five years, the project is expected to generate around 2,000 local jobs, supporting regional economic growth and aligning with Tamil Nadu’s strategy to promote industrial decentralisation.
State Industries Minister TRB Rajaa highlighted the importance of attracting major consumer goods companies, citing the government’s success in drawing marquee national firms under Chief Minister MK Stalin’s Dravidian Model of governance.
The announcement follows the TN Rising Investment Conclave held in Thoothukudi in August 2025, where 41 MoUs worth Rs 325.54 billion were signed, potentially creating nearly 49,845 jobs across multiple sectors, including electronics, defence, renewable energy, and advanced materials.
Reliance Consumer Products’ new facility underlines Tamil Nadu’s growing appeal as a hub for consumer goods manufacturing while reinforcing the company’s presence in India’s fast-moving consumer goods sector.
