Kathmandu: Construction has commenced on the Vital Pro Oil industry in Parsauni, Bara, representing a significant total investment of Rs 515 million. The project officially entered its construction phase following its registration in September 2025.
This new facility is designed to strengthen the domestic edible oil market by refining various types of crude oils into high-quality consumable products.
The industry is being built with a substantial processing capacity of 200 tons per day. Once operational, the refinery will focus on the large-scale processing of soybean oil, sunflower oil, and mustard oil. This capacity aims to meet a significant portion of regional demand for essential cooking oils while utilizing modern refining technologies to ensure product quality.
To fund the project, the company has adopted a financial structure with a debt-to-equity ratio of 75:25. This involves a loan component of 380 million NPR and an equity contribution of Rs 129 million. The promoting investors have already injected 30 million NPR into the project as it moves through its initial development stages.
Under the leadership of Dhiraj Kumar Gupta, the company has secured credit ratings for a total of 1.1 billion NPR to manage its comprehensive capital requirements. This financial arrangement includes 400 million NPR allocated for long-term loans and 700 million NPR for short-term credit facilities. This robust financial backing is intended to cover both the initial construction costs and the subsequent working capital needed for large-scale industrial operations.
