HZL expects production costs to reduce in FY24


According to Hindustan Zinc Ltd.'s chief executive officer, Arun Misra, increasing the use of locally supplied coal, utilising digital projects for operational savings, and increasing volume will be the major enablers in lowering the production cost of zinc. According to Misra, "We have been using domestic coal from India as an offset against expensive imported coal." "Even though we were built to consume 30% of domestic coal, we were only getting 4-5% at first. Since it began to rise, it has increased by 17–20% yearly.
