The investment in this project will amount to $141 million. In addition, there was four projects in the sector of green energy and equipment were covered.

The acquisition of infrastructure and energy assets will strengthen the integration of AMNS production and supply chain and support the plant in Hazira (Gujarat) with a production capacity of 9 million tons per year.

Also, last September it was announced that AMNS India invests $5 billion to expand the steel production capacity of the plant in Hazira. AMNS India will build two blast furnaces and other facilities at the plant, which are scheduled to be operational by mid-2026. It is expected that after the expansion, the volume of steel production at the plant in Hazira will be about 15 million tons per year.
