Hindustan Construction Company (HCC) secured a contract worth approximately ₹204 crore from Hindalco Industries.
The deets: the order is for making, delivering, and installing pot shell and superstructure parts for the Aditya Aluminium Smelter Expansion Project in Odisha. The project plans to boost Hindalco’s aluminium production by 200,000 tonnes.
HCC’s experience in building large industrial structures will also play an important role in completing this project to global quality standards. It also reinforces the company’s growing presence in specialised private sector projects.
Big theme: India’s aluminium industry is among the largest in the world and is poised for strong growth, thanks to its abundant bauxite reserves.
Demand is expected to rise sharply in the coming years, driven by initiatives such as Make in India, Housing for All, the National Infrastructure Pipeline, renewable energy projects, and FAME for electric vehicles.
