Reliance Considers Aluminium Production Amid Adani's Odisha Investment Plans
Reliance Industries is exploring entry into aluminium production, potentially linking it with its planned coal gasification projects in Andhra Pradesh. The company has acquired tender documents for the Karlapat bauxite block in Odisha, though Vedanta's BALCO was the preferred bidder. This move follows Adani Enterprises' recent announcement of an $11.5 billion aluminium project in Odisha, setting the stage for competition between the two conglomerates. Reliance's plans remain exploratory and unfinalized.
