Formerly known as United Phosphorus Limited, UPL is an Indian MNC that manufactures and markets agrochemicals, industrial chemicals, chemical intermediates, and speciality chemicals, and also offers crop protection solutions. The company was established in 1969 and in 2013 it changed its name to UPL Limited. The company, which is headquartered in Mumbai, works in both agro and non-agro activities. The agro-business is the company's primary source of revenue and includes the manufacture and marketing of conventional agrochemical products, seeds and other agricultural-related products. The non-agro segment includes the manufacture and marketing of industrial chemical and other non-agricultural related products such as fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, plant growth and regulators, rodenticides, industrial and speciality chemicals, and nutrifeeds. UPL products are sold in 150+ countries. The company is the fifth-largest generic agrochemicals company in the world after Bayer, Dupont, Syngenta and BASF. This could happen because of the deal UPL signed in 2018 when it acquired control of Arysta LifeScience Inc. The deal was signed with Platform Specialty Products Corporation (now Element Solutions Inc.) for $4.2 billion. In March 2022, UPL said it will sell 49.98 per cent equity in its non-operational subsidiary firm Agri Net Solutions Ltd (ANSL) to promoter group entity Nerka Chemicals for Rs 1.75 crore. More
