Business Overview:[1][2]
VCIL is a Parekh Group Company, promoted by Pidilite Industries Ltd (40.6% as of 31 March 2024). It was involved in manufacturing VAM at its
plant located in Mahad in Raigad District, Maharashtra, but the said manufacturing unit was demerged into PIL. Post-de-merger, company's main focus remains in trading Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM), which is now imported /sourced from various Global suppliers and distributed /traded in India.
VCIL is the leading importer of VAM, with one-third of India’s VAM imports. Being a key input for PIL’s end-product (adhesives), almost 95% of PIL’s VAM requirement is being sourced from VCIL
