Aditya Birla group firm Hindalco Industries Limited on Monday announced that it plans to invest Rs 730 crore to set up a 34,000-tonne extrusion plant at Silvassa in Dadra and Nagar Haveli union territory. In a regulatory filing, Hindalco said the new plant will service the fast-growing market for extruded aluminium products in the western and southern regions. Hindalco said the aluminium extrusion market in India is expected to grow exponentially – from the current level of around 373,000 tonnes to reach about 850,000 tonnes by 2030. The Silvassa project is a step towards Hindalco’s downstream strategy as the company revives its long-term downstream investment plan and also to build a larger value-added product portfolio over the next few years, it said. "Over the next few years, as part of our downstream strategy, we intend to enhance our capacity from over 300,000 tonnes currently, to more than 600,000 tonnes with investments of around ₹7,000 crores," Pai said.
He also added, “We are seeing a revival in the economy, with demand picking in the building and construction and automotive sectors. This has given us the confidence to move forward. The Silvassa facility will enable us to service our customers faster, with an offering of high-end quality aluminium products."
