Technological Developments: Over the years, this plant has emerged as a leader in ferroalloy technology with technological developments in many areas like raw material preparation, raw material substitution, furnace operation, ferroalloy casting and processing etc. The latest technological development being state of the art ‘Layer Casting Technology’ for casting molten Ferro Alloys and Ferro Alloy Processing Unit (Crusher) first of its kind in India.

Expansion Plan: It has been planned to put up 1 No. 45 MW Sub-merged Arc Furnace to produce around 90, 000 tonnes of High Carbon Ferro Manganese or 70,000 tonnes of Silico Manganese, with an investment of around Rs.185 crores at Chandrapur, in next two years. Setting up of a 4.00 MW (furnace gas based) Power Plant with an investment of around Rs.38 crores is also envisaged. It has also been planned to put up a Captive Power Plant to meet total requirement of power of the Plant, in near future.
