Indochem & Polymers was formed in 1988 as the polymer and chemical trading arm of the Bothra Group.

The Bothra Group, founded in 1977 by Mr. M.L. Bothra, with an initial seed capital of Rs 1.5 lakh (US$2700) has grown significantly since then having annual revenues in excess of Rs 1500 crore (US$230 million) today. The group has a wide presence across the polymer supply chain in India from distribution to processing.

Initially the company focused entirely on polymer resin trading but it has since expanded into chemicals and additives. At present the group markets more than 250,000 MT of polymers and chemicals each year across India. Today, the Bothra Group is a vibrant and growing organization and has the ability to finance multi-million dollar transactions and add measurable value to both our suppliers and customers.

We thank all of our friends - including our customers and suppliers - for their continued support and trust over these past 45 years.
