NMDC Opens Dubai Office to Drive Global Expansion

India’s top iron ore producer, NMDC, has inaugurated its first overseas office in Dubai, a key milestone in its international growth strategy. The launch was officiated by Steel and Heavy Industries Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy, along with senior Indian officials and industry leaders.
The Dubai office will act as NMDC’s global coordination centre, overseeing developments in the mineral sectors of the Middle East, North Africa, Australia, and other regions. Its mandate includes identifying critical mineral assets, conducting technical and commercial assessments, and engaging with regulatory bodies, partners, and research institutions.
Chairman and Managing Director Amitava Mukherjee said, “Dubai offers strategic access to global markets. This new office reinforces our ambition to play a more prominent role in the international mining arena and accelerate our mineral diversification efforts.”
As part of its Vision 2030, NMDC is targeting production of 100 million tonnes annually while expanding into lithium, cobalt, and other key minerals to support India’s energy transition. The Dubai base will enhance responsiveness, offer market insights, and help forge partnerships to secure India’s position in the global mineral value chain.
NMDC is currently evaluating acquisition opportunities in ten major mineral assets across Africa, Australia, and South America. The company also aims to strengthen its presence in Mining Equipment and Technology Services (METS), positioning the Dubai office as a strategic hub for its long-term international ambitions.
