Since inception, the company's growth is driven by passion to excel and contribute to societal development. As a part of their growth story, the company has aimed towards achieving goals that are not only beneficial to the shareholders, but also their resource providers, customers, communities and the environment at large.

I would like to congratulate the entire team that has put in the hard work in helping us get the company to where we are."
Mr. Bharat Bhushan Mehta, Whole Time Director of Dalmia Bharat Sugar and Industries Limited, said, "It has been an incredible journey for all of us as Dalmia Bharat Sugar completes 25 years of existence. We are delighted to be a part of a zero waste company. All of our by-products from manufacturing sugar are used back in various ways like Molass is used to produce ethanol, Bio compost is used as a fertilizer in the fields and Bagas is used to produce electricity and fuel."
The company envisions sustainable growth in which the major element is sustainable farming, including reduction in water intensity, chemical fertilizer, soil degradation. The company increased farm productivity, encouraged organic practices, provided subsidised fertilisers, educated farmers around new agricultural practices and transformed the income profile of thousands.
