I congratulate Team NMDC for the excellent performance and I have faith that going forward we will continue to break new grounds.”

This will drive the demand for steel which in turn will drive the demand for iron ore. NMDC with its 7 operational iron ore mines is committed to meet the increased demand of iron ore in the country. With higher spending in these sectors, the Budget has taken steps in the right direction to continue reviving the economy. This shall further increase employment opportunities in the country through private and public investments that was paved through the boost on infrastructure and other sectors.”
