Report: India's Metals Growth Cycle to Shift from Mining to Recycling
A report by Ashika Institutional Equities highlights that India's next metals growth cycle will be driven by recycling rather than mining. Rising demand from electrification, renewable energy, and infrastructure, combined with resource constraints and environmental regulations, is shifting the industry focus to scrap as a strategic resource. Regulatory measures like the Battery Waste Management Rules and Extended Producer Responsibility framework are promoting organized recycling, creating long-term growth opportunities for compliant players. Access to scrap and sourcing networks are becoming key competitive advantages in the non-ferrous metals sector.
