Difficult to say. Production cost is something no manufacturer would like to declare for competitive reasons. So not available in public domain.
However , all players follow the same process - Solvay process which require the same set of Raw material Sea salt NaCl & limestone CaCo3.
The other Raw material is Coke, or Coal or Gas for energy.
So , for Tata chemicals , already they are in to raw salt producing business. whether it makes a difference for them due to large scale of operation.?
Lime stone is sourced from our mines and every manufacturer perhaps has to pay the same price.
Then , the source of energy could also make a difference in production cost where imported coke / coal is used or gas is used. Then there are a set of fixed cost , overheads etc which vary from company to company. A lot of factors are involved in determining production cost!
