The consortium formed by Gujarat Alkalies and Chemicals Ltd (GACL), Gujarat State Fertilizers and Chemicals (GSFC) and Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilizer Company (GNFC) is in talks with ONGC Petro Additions Ltd (OPAL) for sourcing raw materials.

All the three public enterprises have formed a joint venture to set up a petrochemical complex in the Dahej SEZ for an investment of Rs 10,000 crore.
