Mumbai, India: Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has secured multiple mega engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) orders for its Metals & Minerals business, strengthening its presence across India’s mining, steel and non-ferrous metals sectors. The projects will support capacity expansion and infrastructure development for leading domestic public and private sector companies.
L&T announced that its Metals & Minerals (M&M) business vertical has won a series of large domestic contracts spanning iron ore handling, steel plant expansion and zinc processing facilities. The combined orders fall under the company’s “Mega” category, which represents contracts valued between ₹10,000 crore and ₹15,000 crore.
One of the key contracts has been awarded by India’s largest public sector iron ore producer, which is expanding its production capacity to 100 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) by 2030. As part of this programme, L&T will execute an EPC package for an 18 MTPA Iron Ore Handling Plant in Chhattisgarh. The scope includes design, engineering, procurement, installation and commissioning of a downhill conveyor system, screening plant, stockpile facilities, yard equipment, a Rapid Wagon Loading System and associated infrastructure.
The company has also secured another major order from a public sector Navratna enterprise undertaking the expansion of its steel plant in West Bengal from 2.5 MTPA to 7.1 MTPA. L&T will deliver multiple design-and-build and balance-of-plant packages as part of the expansion programme.
In the non-ferrous segment, L&T will continue its long-standing association with a leading private sector metals producer after receiving an EPC contract for a new zinc processing plant. The project covers engineering, procurement, installation, commissioning and related site services.
Commenting on the latest order wins, L&T Chairman and Managing Director S. N. Subrahmanyan said the contracts reaffirm the company’s leadership in the minerals and metals EPC sector while reflecting customers’ confidence in its ability to execute projects of significant scale and complexity. He added that as India continues to invest in expanding its metals and minerals capacity, L&T remains focused on supporting the development of world-class industrial infrastructure.
The latest contracts further strengthen L&T’s order book and reinforce its position as one of India’s leading engineering companies serving large-scale industrial infrastructure projects across the metals and mining value chain.
