Lloyds Metals and Energy has successfully commissioned its second 4 MTPA pellet plant at Konsari, Maharashtra, completing construction in a record 16 months. With this, the company's total own pellet capacity at Konsari reaches 8 MTPA across two plants. The first pellet plant is already operating at 100% capacity utilisation. The new plant will source feedstock from the company's captive iron ore mines at Surjagarh, transported via the 85km slurry pipeline commissioned in June 2025. The company notes its low-alumina ore enables production of premium-grade pellets with pricing premiums in domestic and export markets.
The commissioning doubles pellet production capacity and positions Lloyds among India's largest merchant pellet players, strengthening its integrated steel value chain and potentially improving revenue from premium-grade pellet sales.
