This Week’s Spotlight Story

A deep dive into the headline that defined market conversations.

Hindustan Zinc’s ₹12,000 Cr Bet: Scaling Up with Zinc, Silver, and More

Hindustan Zinc has approved a ₹12,000 crore project to set up a new metals complex in Rajasthan. The facility will add 250 KTPA of capacity and marks the first step in a larger expansion plan. Over the next five years, the company aims to double overall production to 2 million tonnes per annum.

The expansion isn’t just about zinc. It includes an additional 30 KT of silver capacity. Silver, already Hindustan Zinc’s second-largest business, is set to become more central. The company plans to raise refining capacity to 1,500 TPA from the current 800 TPA. Management sees a tight supply ahead and expects silver prices to touch $41–$42/oz by early 2027.

The project will be funded through internal accruals and debt. Full-scale expansion is expected to cost ₹32,000–₹35,000 crore in phases. The first phase will take about 36 months, with cash flows kicking in from year four.

There’s also early interest in rare earths. Hindustan Zinc has signalled it’s ready to invest once the regulatory space opens. It’s a long-term plan, but one that aligns with global shifts in supply chains and critical minerals.
