Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals Limited (GSFC) is a publicly-traded Indian chemicals and fertilizers manufacturer, partly owned by the Government of Gujarat. GSFC was founded in 1962 and has its headquarters in Vadodara on the Ahmedabad Vadodara Expressway.[3] As of fiscal year 2021–22, fertilizers such as diammonium phosphate, ammonium sulfate and urea generated over 60% of the company's revenue, while industrial products including caprolactam, nylon 6, melamine and MEK oxime contributed the remaining share.[4]

Oil and gas discovered in Bombay High and South Basin triggered the birth of 8 new generation fertilizer plants to fulfill the growing food needs of India. In 1976, it set up a plant in Bharuch which trades as Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilisers & Chemicals, as a subsidiary of GSFC.

In 2012, GSFC incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary called GSFC AgroTech Limited (GATL).[5]

In 2015, GSFC helped start GSFC University in Vadodara, Gujarat.[6]
