The company reported its highest-ever Total Income of \u20b911,143 crore, registering a growth of 33% over the corresponding period of the previous year. EBITDA surged by 50% to an all-time high of \u20b95,539 crore, while Profit Before Tax (PBT) rose by 55% to a record \u20b95,160 crore. Profit After Tax (PAT) stood at \u20b93,837 crore, reflecting a year-on-year growth of 54%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the quarter ended September 2026, NALCO posted a 28% increase in net profit at \u20b91,835 crore compared to \u20b91,433 crore during the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. Total income from operations during Q2 FY 2026-27 increased by 26% to \u20b95,419 crore, underscoring the company\u2019s sustained operational excellence and market strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company&#8217;s strong financial performance was complemented by equally impressive operational achievements. NALCO recorded its highest-ever half-yearly Aluminium Cast Metal Production of 2.35 lakh tonnes, alongside its highest-ever cumulative domestic sales of Alumina and Aluminium Metal, reaffirming its strong position in the Indian aluminium sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further reflecting its commitment to creating value for shareholders, the company has announced an interim dividend of \u20b94.50 per equity share (90% on the face value of \u20b95 each), involving a payout of \u20b9826.48 crore for FY 2026-27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alongside its record financial performance, NALCO continues to advance its long-term expansion plans through the proposed 0.5 MTPA Brownfield Aluminium Smelter Expansion Project at Anugola, Odisha. The project will nearly double NALCO\u2019s smelting capacity from the existing 0.46 MTPA to about 1.0 MTPA and is targeted for commissioning during FY 2030-31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Significant progress has been achieved on key implementation milestones. The company has secured critical approvals and initiated enabling activities for project execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a major technological partnership, NALCO has entered into an agreement with Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) for licensing its proprietary aluminium smelting technology, enabling adoption of globally proven and energy-efficient production processes at the Anugola plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To meet the additional power requirement of the expanded smelter, NALCO has partnered with NLC India Limited through a 50:50 Joint Venture Company for setting up a 4 \u00d7 270 MW (1,080 MW) Captive Thermal Power Plant. Reinforcing its sustainability commitment, the company is also planning integration of 200\u2013250 MW of renewable energy into the project ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NALCO\u2019s expansion roadmap is further supported by the ongoing 5th Stream Alumina Refinery Project at Damanjodi, which is expected to generate sufficient alumina to cater to the requirements of the expanded smelter while also creating surplus capacity. Looking beyond current projects, the company is exploring opportunities for establishing additional Greenfield aluminium projects in alignment with the national objectives of value addition, industrial self-reliance and manufacturing growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NALCO\u2019s ongoing and proposed expansion projects are being undertaken with the support of the Government of Odisha and the Ministry of Mines, Government of India. These initiatives are expected to generate substantial employment opportunities, strengthen downstream industries, promote regional economic development and contribute significantly to the growth of India\u2019s aluminium sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Expansion activities Highlights<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Anugola Smelter Expansion Project progressing steadily<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Smelting capacity to increase from 0.46 MTPA to nearly 1.0 MTPA<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Proposed Smelter Expansion targeted for commissioning by FY 2030-31<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strategic technology partnership signed with Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Joint Venture with NLC India Limited for a 1,080 MW Captive Power Plant<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plans to integrate 200-250 MW Renewable Energy Capacity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Expansion projects expected to generate employment, boost downstream industries and promote regional economic growth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>NALCO exploring additional Greenfield Aluminium Projects to support long-term growth and value addition in India<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Expansion strategy aligned with Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat initiatives<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With record financial performance, continued operational excellence and a strong expansion pipeline, NALCO remains committed to creating sustainable value for stakeholders while contributing meaningfully to the nation\u2019s industrial and economic development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bhubaneswar, 13.11.2026 [ADN]: National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO), the Navratna CPSE under the Ministry of Mines, Government of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11034,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11030","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-39"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11030","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11030"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11030\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11035,"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11030\/revisions\/11035"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/11034"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11030"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11030"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agamiduniya.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11030"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
