SC Agrotech Ltd, initially incorporated as Sheel International Limited in 1990, pivoted from its original focus in the dairy sector to agriculture, horticulture, and biotechnologies. This strategic shift, solidified in 2015 with a name change, aligns with India's governmental policies promoting agriculture and biotechnology sectors. The company's transition was driven by the closure of its dairy plant in 1998-99 and ongoing financial challenges. The agriculture and biotechnology sectors require less investment and promise higher returns, making this a pragmatic shift. SC Agrotech aims to capitalize on government initiatives like the National Horticulture Mission and Vegetable Initiative for Urban Clusters, which support the growth of these sectors.
