India presents a significant investment opportunity in the metal industry with the introduction of the National Mineral Policy 2019 and the Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Amendment Act 2021.
The landscape of India’s Metals and Mining sector is poised for substantial transformation in the coming years, driven by initiatives like the Make in India Campaign, Smart Cities development, Rural Electrification, and the strategic pursuit of renewable energy projects outlined in the National Electricity Policy. Concurrently, a surge in infrastructure projects further underscores this momentum. Notably, the Government has granted its endorsement for the introduction of the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme in Specialty Steel, aiming to fortify India’s manufacturing capabilities and amplify export potentials.
However, mining and metals companies operating within this sector face various challenges. These include meeting environmental standards, social responsibility expectations, compliances; decarbonizing value chains; managing geopolitical risks; adapting to digitalization trends; navigating financing costs; as well as coping with regulatory uncertainties.
ELP boasts an experienced multi-disciplinary team that possesses extensive knowledge of this sector, enabling us to assist on matters that arise in the typical life cycle of a mine and metal production process. Furthermore, leveraging our nationwide litigation presence, we adeptly serve clients across a diverse range of judicial platforms, encompassing tribunals of significant stature like the Coal Mines Tribunal and the National Green Tribunal.
