As part of the restructuring, the A.V. Birla Group has planned expansions at the integrated aluminium complex at Renukoot (Uttar Pradesh) and the copper complex at Dahej in Gujarat. The group is keen on increasing the copper as well as aluminium smelter capacities as much as can easily be supported by the existing infrastructure facility at the current locations, according to Debu Bhattacharya, managing director, Indo Gulf. The group aims to attain global size and have an edge over our competitors and will continue to expand, irrespective of whether it manages to get Nalco or not, Bhattacharya added.
