Nalco is well thought-out to be a turning point in the history of Indian Aluminium Industry. In a major leap forward, Nalco has not only addressed the want for self-sufficiency in aluminium, but also given the country a technological edge in making this strategic metal to the best of world standards.

Nalco is really not making profit from long time so the government is surely under pressure and the decision to invest such huge amount is also part of their strategy.
