Vedanta to set up aluminium park in Odisha's Jharsuguda
Vedanta will set up a modern aluminium park in Jharsuguda, Odisha, alongside a three MTPA aluminium plant in Rayagada district, with a total investment of Rs one lakh crore.
The aluminium park, spanning 253 acres, aims to attract over 100 micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and generate two lakh employment opportunities.
At the ‘Utkarsh Odisha-Make in Odisha Conclave’ in January, Vedanta signed an MoU with the state government to develop both projects.
The company already operates a 1.8-MTPA smelter facility in Jharsuguda and a 3.5-MTPA alumina refinery at Lanjigarh, Kalahandi.
This investment strengthens Vedanta’s presence in Odisha, supporting industrial growth, job creation, and the expansion of the aluminium sector.
