Frequently Asked

Investor FAQ

Key questions answered for institutional investors and strategic partners evaluating India's SAF infrastructure opportunity.

SAF is a drop-in replacement for conventional jet fuel produced from sustainable feedstocks such as bamboo biomass. It can reduce lifecycle carbon emissions by up to 85% compared to fossil-based jet fuel, while being fully compatible with existing aircraft engines and fuelling infrastructure.

Northeast India is home to over 67% of India's bamboo reserves spanning approximately 9.6 million hectares. This vast, renewable feedstock base, combined with favourable climatic conditions for year-round cultivation, makes the region uniquely positioned for industrial-scale biomass-to-SAF production.

India has mandated 1% SAF blending for all domestic airlines from 2027, scaling to 5% by 2030. The Government of India, through the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, has issued a formal SAF notification under the Gazette and is developing production incentive frameworks aligned with the National Green Hydrogen Mission.

Hutah Industries employs an integrated biomass-to-SAF pathway combining proven thermochemical conversion technologies including gasification, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, and hydroprocessing. Our technology partners bring decades of experience in commercial-scale bio-refinery operations.

Our flagship facility targets 40 KTA (Kilo Tonnes Per Annum) capacity in the initial phase, with a total pipeline of 200 KTA across five strategic locations. The FEED (Front-End Engineering Design) study is currently ongoing, with commercial operations targeted in alignment with India's 2027 SAF blending mandate.

Through our Captive Resource Model, we secure long-term bamboo supply by partnering directly with local communities and landowners across 1,500+ acres of dedicated bamboo plantations. This vertically integrated approach eliminates supply chain vulnerabilities and supports over 10,000 green jobs in the region.

Hutah Industries is positioned to supply SAF to India's Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) — Indian Oil Corporation, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum — as well as directly to domestic and international airlines operating in India, under long-term offtake agreements.

We welcome engagement from institutional investors, infrastructure funds, sovereign wealth funds, and strategic partners aligned with India's energy transition. Please reach out to contact@hutahindustries.com for investment discussions and partnership opportunities.
