Lloyds Metals and Energy Commissions Second 4 MTPA Pellet Plant at Konsari in Record Time

Lloyds Metals and Energy Limited ("LMEL" / "the Company") is pleased to announce the successful commissioning of its second pellet plant of 4 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) capacity at Konsari, Maharashtra - completed in a remarkable record time of 16 months from the date of commencement of construction.

This milestone reaffirms the Company's ability to execute world-class industrial projects with speed, precision, and an unwavering commitment to operational excellence - consistent with its track record of delivering the first pellet plant and the 85-kilometre iron ore slurry pipeline at the same site in June 2025.

With this commissioning, Lloyds Metals and Energy now operates two pellet plants at Konsari with a combined own capacity of 8 MTPA, without accounting for the Company's strategic investments in (MRPPL) and (BRPL). The existing pellet plant of 4 MTPA has reached 100% capacity utilisation.

The pellet plant draws its feedstock directly from the Company's captive, low-alumina iron ore mines at Surjagarh, Gadchiroli, seamlessly transported via the 85-kilometre iron ore slurry pipeline commissioned in June 2025. The low alumina content of LMEL's captive ore enables the production of premium-grade pellets that command a pricing premium in domestic and export markets.

This commissioning is a strategic cornerstone in LMEL's journey to build an integrated, end-to-end steel value chain. The Company remains deeply committed to responsible and efficient growth, leveraging its geological advantage, its execution capabilities, and its long-term vision to build an asset base that is resilient, cost-competitive, and fully aligned with India's expanding steel demand.
