Ballarpur Industries Limited (BILT) is India's largest
manufacturer of writing and printing (W&P) paper. BILT's
subsidiaries include BILT Graphic Paper Products Limited
(BGPPL); Sabah Forest Industries (SFI), Malaysia's
largest pulp and paper company; and BILT Tree Tech
Limited (BTTL), which runs BILT's farm forestry
programme in several states in India. Mr. R.R. Vederah
is the Managing Director and Executive Vice Chairman. BILT and BGPPL have six manufacturing units across
India, which give the company geographic coverage over
most of the domestic market. The company has a dominant
share of the high-end coated paper segment in India. It
accounts for over 51% of the coated wood-free paper
market, an impressive 78% of the bond paper market and
nearly 37% of the hi-bright Maplitho market, besides being
India's largest exporter of coated and uncoated paper.
BILT’s acquisition of SFI in 2007 was a watershed event –
it was the first overseas acquisition by an Indian paper
company, it transformed BILT into a major regional player,
and elevated BILT’s ranking among the global top 100.
