The total capex for Unit 4 shall be ₹71.35 crore allocated from IPO proceeds and will house 348 state-of-the-art water jet looms with a production capacity of 112.75 million meters per annum (9.39 million meters per month). With the commencement of operations, 300 looms are already running at the Unit, while the remaining 48 water jet looms are expected to be operational by October 2025.
The new unit will manufacture Greige cloth, further strengthening Borana Weaves' overall annual capacity to 346 million meters across its manufacturing footprint.
