The project was initiated some four years ago from the industrialists and business leaders of Myagdi district but the project was delayed due to Gorkha Earthquake, India’s economic blockade on Nepal, geographical remoteness and Baisari landslides in the Kaligandaki River. 


The total cost of the project is estimated at around Rs 1.15 billion. 

Likewise, the company is preparing to issue an initial public offering (IPO) of 1.55 million units of share.
