Chandigarh: Integrated textile major Nahar Group has decided to set up a new plant for manufacturing Bi-axially Oriented Polypropylene film (BOPP) at Mandideep in Madhya Pradesh with an estimated investment of Rs 200 crore.

"We have decided to invest Rs 200 crore for setting up a new plant in Bhopal which will make raw material for the packaging industry," Nahar Investments and Holdings Director Dinesh Oswal told PTI.

The board of directors of the company has decided in its board meeting to change the name of Nahar Investments and Holdings Limited to Nahar Poly Films Limited.
