The Centre introduced PLIs for 14 sectors, of which specialty chemicals is one of them. India is a major importer of specialty chemicals.

In the said period, the small-cap company’s penny shares rose 226.7 per cent to Rs 4.90 per share at Friday’s close.

The company’s current market capitalisation is worth Rs 315.4 crore, NSE data showed.
