Growing demand
“Building on the momentum from the 40 mt production surpassed consecutively in the financial years 2022 and 2023, the corporation is on a record-breaking spree as it achieves the highest production and sales for any April month since inception,” Amitava Mukherjee, Chairman and Managing Director (Additional Charge), said.
“We are continuously adopting new processes and technologies to strengthen our supply chain and continue to meet the growing iron ore demands of the nation. We are now aiming at becoming a 100 mt a year mining company by 2030 and we are treading confidently on the road map laid for achieving the same,” he said.
