NMDC’s production may increase by 20% this fiscal

05 Apr 2012 Evaluate

On the back of improved output from the existing mines, State-owned iron ore producer NMDC’s iron ore output will go up by 20% this fiscal to more than 30 million tonne as against 27 million tonne last fiscal.

The company had produced 25.19 million tonne iron ore in FY11, up 6% over 23.8 million tonne recorded in 2009-10. The steel-making raw material in 2011-12 could match the level of expectation because a proper evacuation system could not be put in place.

India’s biggest iron ore miner plans to spend Rs 4,655 crore on capital expenditure in the 2012-13 fiscal. Over 75% of the fund (Rs 3,513 crore) would be spent on its upcoming three million tonne per annum steel plant at Nagarnar in Chhattisgarh and the rest Rs 1,142 crore on existing iron ore mines.

NMDC is a state-controlled mineral producer of the Government of India. It is fully owned by the Government of India and is under administrative control of the Ministry of Steel.
