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

Lloyds Metals and Energy has commissioned its second pellet plant with a 4 million tonnes per annum capacity at Konsari, Maharashtra, completing the project in 16 months. This addition doubles the company's pellet production capacity at the site to 8 MTPA. The plants use low-alumina iron ore from captive mines at Surjagarh, transported via an 85-kilometre slurry pipeline commissioned in June 2025. The existing plant operates at full capacity, supporting the company’s integrated steel value chain strategy.
