S Sankarasubramanian, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Coromandel International, has assumed charge as the Chairman of the Fertiliser Association of India (FAI), replacing Shailesh C Mehta.
Siba Prasad Mohanty, Managing Director of Hindustan Urvarak & Rasayan Ltd, formerly one of the two Co-Chairmen, will now be the sole Co-Chairman of FAI.
The 70-year-old organisation represents fertiliser manufacturers, distributors, importers, equipment manufacturers, research institutes and suppliers of inputs.
Sankarasubramanian, who is currently Co-Chairman of the FAI Board and Chairman of FAI’s Southern Region, has over three decades of diverse experience in the fertiliser industry, particularly in the phosphatic and potassic (P&K) sector.
“We will continue to align industry goals with national agricultural priorities to foster growth, resilience and long-term food security,” he said in a statement on Tuesday.
“The association is committed to driving innovation and sustainability through resource efficiency and balanced nutrition, while working closely with policymakers to achieve Atmanirbharta in the fertiliser sector,” he said.
