Nalco

National Aluminium Company (NALCO), India’s leading aluminium producer, has announced plans to focus on expanding its presence in the UK market, even as US tariffs on aluminium imports continue. Company executives indicate that the tariffs have had minimal impact on their exports, allowing NALCO to pursue alternative markets in Europe. With rising demand for high-quality aluminium in automotive, construction, and packaging sectors, the UK presents a strategic opportunity.

National Aluminium Company Ltd (Nalco), the state-owned integrated aluminium producer, reported a dramatic rise in its consolidated net profit for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, surging to Rs. 2,067.23 crore—more than double the Rs. 996.74 crore recorded a year earlier. This exceptional performance was underpinned by higher revenues from operations, which rose to Rs. 5,267.83 crore during the quarter. The company’s full-year profit also climbed sharply to Rs.

India’s aluminium sector is entering a new era of regulatory scrutiny, with proposed government rules mandating a phased reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emission intensity. Key industry players—including Vedanta, Hindalco, Nalco, and others—are expected to comply with plant-specific targets under the draft Greenhouse Gases Emission Intensity Target Rules, 2025. These measures form part of India’s broader climate commitment to achieve net-zero emissions by 2070.
