Baldota Group to Set Up Rs 540 Billion Steel Plant in Koppal

Bengaluru-based Baldota Group has announced plans to establish a massive steel plant in Karnataka’s Koppal district with an investment of Rs 540 billion. The integrated steel unit, to be developed under Baldota Steel and Power Ltd (BSPL), will have a production capacity of 10.50 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) and is expected to generate 15,000 jobs.

A memorandum of understanding (MoU) formalising the project will be signed at the Global Investors' Meet between the Karnataka government and Baldota Group. The initiative aims to boost the state’s steel production while driving large-scale employment.

Baldota Group, known for its diversified interests in mineral exploration, mining, industrial gases, pellet production, wind power, and waste treatment, operates iron ore mines in Karnataka through its subsidiary MSPL Ltd. This latest investment follows the group's earlier venture in November 2022, when its subsidiary Aaress Iron & Steel Ltd announced a Rs 180 billion steel plant in Koppal with a 3.5 MTPA capacity, promising 10,000 jobs.
