EBITDA for the quarter stood at ₹16,788 million, an impressive 498% increase year-on-year, with EBITDA margins expanding to 33.73%. This robust performance was driven by higher iron ore EC limits, faster ramp-up of the pellet plant, improved sponge iron volumes, and the commissioning of a slurry pipeline that enhanced throughput.

For the full fiscal year FY26, standalone total income reached ₹1,38,378 million, a 104% year-on-year growth. EBITDA for FY26 was ₹46,731 million, up 133% year-on-year, with EBITDA margins at 33.77%. The company also reported a PAT of ₹31,943 million for FY26.

The pellet plant, which commenced commercial production in Q2FY26, achieved 100% capacity utilization within four months, with a second pellet plant commissioned in May 2026.

The company has also made significant strides in its expansion plans. Capex incurred during FY24-FY26 was ₹1,35,130 million, with ₹81,310 million invested in FY26 alone. Net debt as of March 31, 2026, was ₹39,010 million.

LMEL has entered the copper value chain with the commencement of commercial production of copper cathodes from its 12,000 TPA plant in Surya Mines, DRC, in March 2026. Furthermore, the company acquired a 49% stake in Chemaf Group, entering a significant copper-cobalt platform in the DRC.

A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been signed with Tata Steel to explore strategic collaboration, focusing on utilizing complementary strengths for sustainable growth in the domestic steel sector. This includes joint evaluation of iron ore mining concessions, leveraging pelletisation infrastructure, developing logistics solutions, and evaluating integrated steel projects.

The company's strategic roadmap includes expanding iron ore production to 26 MnT, pellet production to 7.75-8 MnT, and DRI production to 825 KT by FY27. LMEL aims to scale its copper capacity to 30,000 TPA at Surya Mines and a longer-term ambition of 100,000 TPA, alongside expanding copper-cobalt capacity in the DRC.
