Management Comments:
“We
have now achieved a significant milestone of successfully commissioning our
state-of-the-art pellet plant at Angul. We have also signed mining lease for
two thermal coal mines - Gare Palma IV/6 and Utkal C, which will lead to
consistent availability of coal for our thermal coal requirements in DRI Kilns,
Coal Gasification and Power Plants at lower costs. What has been most
satisfying, however, is our Great Place To Work Certification. We see it as the
underlying factor in our continually improving financial and operational
performance.” said Mr. Bimlendra Jha,
