A decision on the reimbursement process was taken at a meeting chaired by Infrastructure and Industrial Development Commissioner (IIDC) Manoj Kumar.

JK Cement Works, Aligarh (a unit of JK Cement Ltd), will also be reimbursed a total incentive of Rs 21.85 crore for the financial year 2020-21 and Rs 12.52 crore for 2021-2022.
