To be done for pharmaceuticals, chemicals, textiles, API, engineering and plastics, Mitsu's investment commitment involves employment for 15,000, with the project expected to begin in 2025.

The second largest investment commitment in the second tranche was done by Aarti Industries Limited for approximately Rs 4,000 crore, along with Rs 475 crore by Aarti Drugs Limited for chemicals, pesticide, specialty and intermediate chemicals that are set to come up at Jhagadia near Bharuch, Dahej and Vapi.

In the electric vehicle batteries and related applications section, Gujarat Fluorochemicals Limited invested Rs 2,000 crore at Dahej, which will render employment for 1,450 and launch by 2024.

In the dyes and colour section, Asian Paints Limited committed investments of Rs 1,140 crore for an integrated paints factory at Ankleshwar, employing 3,900.

The chemical space additionally observed a commitment worth Rs 720 crore by Navin Fluorine Advanced Sciences Limited, along with Rs 500 crore commitment by Pragna Specialty Private Limited in chemicals and intermediates.
