project location has been considered. Proposed distillery location is geographically located

at 17°42'25.38"N & 77°23'35.92"E. Project site and the 10 km radius study area falls in the

survey of India Toposheet no. 56 G/5 and 56 G/6.

Project area is connected to National Highway 65 adjacent to the sugar factory, railway station

Railway Station Bidar 25 km, Airport Hyderabad Airport 143 km. Nearest densely populated

city Bidar 25 km away from the project site. The surrounding area of the project site is rural

agrarian. Land for proposed project is a vacant plot and it is under for industrial purpose.
