How will the newly approved BIRAC grant assistance impact Balrampur Chini Mills' R&D pipeline and future product diversification beyond traditional sugar?

Will the consistent dividend payout of ₹3.50 per share signal a stable capital return policy, or does it indicate limited reinvestment opportunities in the current sugar cycle?
