The Problem We're Solving

India's Hidden Oil Crisis

Every year India generates an enormous volume of used cooking oil — and almost none of it is safely recovered. The cost is paid in public health and polluted water.

6.2B

Litres of used cooking oil

Generated across India every single year.

Higher health risk

Reused cooking oil is linked to a sharply higher risk of cancer and heart disease.

Most of it

Never recovered

Re-enters the food chain illegally, or is dumped into drains and local water bodies.

Sengoal exists to close this gap.

Our Circular Value Chain

India's First B2C ESG Model

One feedstock moves through a single closed loop — from the kitchen, back to clean energy and global markets.

01

Fresh Oil Delivered

Lab-certified, refined cooking oil delivered to homes, kitchens and temples.

02

UCO Collection

Used cooking oil collected back from homes, kitchens and temples.

03

Safe Transport

Tracked, compliant logistics carry the feedstock to our plant.

04

Upgrade to Green Fuel

Refined into clean biodiesel and sustainable aviation fuel.

05

Global Impact

Shipped to Europe and Asia as premium clean fuel.

The consumer loop is the moat

Households order fresh, lab-certified oil — and return the used oil in a Sengoal-provided specialised tin fitted with an IoT system that automatically measures the oil level. One loop secures a proprietary, below-market feedstock, builds a consumer brand, and generates quantifiable ESG impact.

Ecosystem Products

Four revenue lines, one feedstock

A commissioned multi-product oil plant turning everyday oil into honest, useful products — and clean energy. Two products are live today; biodiesel and SAF go live on the RUCO licence.

Refined Cooking Oil

Revenue Line 01

Fresh, lab-certified oil for everyday kitchens — the product that anchors the entire collection loop and brings households into the system.

Deepam Lamp Oil

Revenue Line 02 · Temple Loop

Pure, traditional lamp oil for homes and temples — purified from ritual oil collected at South Indian shrines.

"The temple's waste returns as its light."

Biodiesel

Revenue Line 03

Used cooking oil cleaned and converted at Anekal, then sold to domestic biodiesel manufacturers. Soap-base by-products add a further revenue stream.

Technology

Automated UCO collection, by design

Our collection process is built to run automatically — live, demonstrable proof that the model works, with every litre traceable from source to plant.

Commissioned multi-product plant · Anekal2.5-acre site, with room to scale.

IoT smart collection

Connected collection containers digitise every litre of UCO, building an auditable, automated feedstock pipeline.

Tracked, compliant logistics

Chain-of-custody transport keeps the feedstock auditable from kitchen to refinery.

Pledge platform

Households pledge to stop reusing oil and order fresh oil through a simple digital platform.

Community & Scale

A movement, not just a business

A plant that already runs, real products in market, and a growing community of families choosing safe oil.

Cooking & Deepam oil generating revenue from a plant that already runs.

Phase 02 · Near

Next 12 Months

The temple loop scales and UCO-to-biodiesel goes live on the RUCO licence.

Phase 03 · Future

The Horizon

SAF exported to Europe — one near-free feedstock, four revenue lines.

Waste into infrastructure. Infrastructure into clean energy.
