The flagship company of Aditya Birla Group, Hindalco Industries (HIL), has recently secured the environmental clearance for setting up of a new cast copper rod plant in Gujarat's Bharuch District at an investment of Rs. 240cr. The company has a mega copper smelting and refining complex in villages Lakhigam and Dahej in the district.

The green nod to the project has been given subject to certain conditions including that the company has been asked to install 24X7 automatic air monitoring devices to monitor air emissions, upgrade existing scrubbers within a year to reduce Sulphur dioxide emissions, and prepare a statement of carbon budgeting within six months and later every year, ensuring proper utilization of fly ash, develop green belt in 33% of plant area and spend 2.5 per cent of the total cost of the project towards Enterprise Social Commitment.
