Investment Rationale
Management’s focus is to diversify the revenue base of the company from lignite and so the company plans to foray into manufacturing of rare-earth elements, and non-lignite businesses such as silica sand, Fluorspar, multi metal, and limestone for which it has roped in BCG for feasibility study. In the coming years, it aims to earn at least ~50% revenue from the non-lignite portfolio. This will help the company to mitigate the risk of dependence on a single commodity and also improve the ESG rating of the company.
