Nestlé India to Expand Maggi Production: ₹90 Crore Investment in Gujarat

Nestlé India Limited has announced a strategic expansion of its manufacturing capabilities at the Sanand Factory in Gujarat. In a regulatory filing dated April 1, 2026, the FMCG major detailed plans to add a new production line dedicated to its popular Maggi Noodles brand.

The expansion involves a proposed capacity addition of 20,500 tons per annum, augmenting the factory's existing capacity of approximately 141,600 tons.

This investment is part of Nestlé's broader capital expenditure strategy across greenfield and brownfield projects to meet rising future demand. The new line is expected to be commissioned within the Financial Year 2026-27, ensuring that the company maintains its market leadership in the instant noodles segment.
