Engineering and construction giant Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has secured a large order from Hindalco Industries for setting up an 850 KTPA (kilo tonne per annum) greenfield alumina refinery in Odisha.

The order, awarded to L&T’s Minerals & Metals (M&M) business vertical, was announced in an exchange filing on Thursday. The project is expected to enhance Hindalco’s alumina production capacity, strengthening its position in the aluminum sector.

As per L&T’s classification, a “large order” falls within the range of ₹2,500 crore to ₹5,000 crore, although the exact contract value has not been disclosed.

The new refinery will support Hindalco’s growing demand for alumina, a key raw material in aluminum production, and is expected to drive industrial growth in Odisha. L&T’s expertise in executing large-scale infrastructure and industrial projects will play a crucial role in the successful completion of this facility.

The project aligns with India’s push for self-reliance in mineral production and is expected to generate employment opportunities in the region.
