The State government is planning to build a well-equipped office to house various departments on the premises of Karnataka Soaps and Detergents Ltd. (KSDL) in Yeshwantpur.
M.B. Patil, Large and Medium-scale Industries Minister and also chairman of KSDL, said available land on the KSDL premises would be utilised to construct an office complex for government departments in a phased manner. However, this would be done after considering the space required for KSDL’s future expansion and growth.
Mr. Patil said KSDL has a mandate to grow its annual business transactions to ₹2,500 crore by 2025 and ₹5,000 crore by 2030 from the current turnover of ₹1,200 crore. “Our priority and immediate focus is to expand foreign market presence for KSDL products and exports to predominantly to Europe and Arab countries,’‘ he said.
