Ducon Infratechnologies Limited has received policy validation for its early carbon capture strategy as India accelerates its Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS) deployment. The Union Budget 2026-27 proposes a significant outlay of ₹20,000 crore over the next five years to fast-track CCUS technologies, positioning Ducon to lead in achieving India's net-zero goals. This policy landmark validates Ducon's long-standing vision and its proactive approach. The company initiated its solvent-based carbon capture R&D program in September 2025, focusing on proprietary solvent systems, laboratory experimentation, process modeling, and pilot-scale validation. The Indian government's decarbonisation strategy identifies CCUS as a core pillar, particularly for industrial sectors like cement, steel, refining, and chemicals. The Indian carbon capture and storage market is projected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 10.3% between 2025 and 2030. Ducon expects its early R&D to strengthen its position through technology differentiation and comprehensive lifecycle services. Arun Govil, Chairman & Managing Director, stated that the government's commitment signals carbon capture's integral role in India's industrial framework. He emphasized Ducon's preparedness through early investment in R&D, aligning with the market's move from policy intent to industrial execution. In FY25, Ducon reported consolidated Total Income of ₹451 crore, EBITDA of ₹31 crore, and Net Profit of ₹14 crore.
