NMDC

Summary

BusinessLine reported that NMDC, a state-run mining company, is in talks with Russia's Rosatom to explore lithium mining and processing opportunities. Economic Times reported the same talks, saying they cover possible investment in lithium projects and citing sources. Both outlets linked the move to India's efforts to secure supplies of critical minerals for battery manufacturing and electric vehicle industries. Neither report gave a value for the talks, a timeline or a signed agreement. Lithium is a key mineral used in batteries, and India currently imports most of what it needs. NMDC is listed on Indian exchanges and is majority owned by the government. Rosatom is Russia's state nuclear energy company. The reports describe early-stage discussions, not a completed deal.
