Aluminium production saw a modest increase of 0.9 per cent, rising to 38.36 lakh tonnes (LT) during April-February of Financial Year 2024-25, according to provisional data released by Ministry of Mines.

Confronted with challenges stemming from rising foreign imports, a declining market share and escalating costs, aluminium industry representatives have sought government intervention for supportive measures to tide over this challenging phase.
