Tea is one of the oldest businesses of the Dhunseri Group and has been the flag bearer for the last five decades. DTIL has widened its reach from eight estates in 2003-04 to ten estates in 2012-13 in Assam. As a result, the company is now one of the ten largest tea producers in India. The Company’s tea packaging and blending units are located in Dhunseri Tea Estate (Assam) and at Jaipur (Rajasthan).
