Hindustan Zinc Commits ₹5,000 Crore to Mining Capacity Expansion

Hindustan Zinc has unveiled plans to invest ₹5,000 crore in expanding its mining capacity by fiscal year 2027. The company aims to fund most of this expansion using internal cash reserves.

This investment follows a period of focus on brownfield projects and strategic hedging in silver markets to manage price volatility.

Hindustan Zinc has allocated approximately 80 percent of the ₹5,000 crore towards existing brownfield projects, with the remaining 20 percent reserved for new ventures.
