In late sixties, three young men started their journey for
entrepreneurship in manufacturing products related to surface
coating Industry. The beginning was with paint and lacquer. In early
seventies they decided to alter their path to the most critical
product in this field i.e. nitrocellulose. Thereafter cellulose
became their main line of business. This was the beginning of Asha Nitrochem Industries Ltd., the first private sector company to
start production of Industrial Nitrocellulose in India. In late
eighties, the product range extended to Celluloid Sheets, Ethyl
Cellulose and in late nineties to Pigment Dispersions. These were all
maiden ventures in India. When Nitrocellulose unit was sold to ICI
Group in 1998, the group retained the exclusive right for export of
Nitrocellulose and also retained balance manufacturing facilities
other than Nitrocellulose.
