Mishra, currently posted as Director Finance at State Trading Corporation (STC), is likely to assume the charge of CMD of the fertiliser firm this week.
"Fertiliser Ministry has issued orders for appointment of Manoj Mishra as CMD of the NFL," a source said.
In September last year, government headhunters Public Enterprises Selection Board (PESB) had recommended Mishra's name for the top post at NFL.
NFL's CMD post fell vacant after the retirement of Neeru Abrol in February 2014.
NFL has five gas-based urea plants viz Nangal & Bathinda in Punjab, Panipat in Haryana and two plants at Vijaipur in District Guna, Madhya Pradesh.
