16 Jan 2026 CW Team

Enlight Metals has delivered 75,000 tonnes of metals by the end of Q3 FY 2025–26, marking a key operational milestone for the metals aggregation start-up. The executed volume spans infrastructure, industrial and enterprise customers across India, supported by large-scale public and private sector projects.

For the full financial year, the company is targeting total deliveries of around 1.25 lakh tonnes. With 75,000 tonnes already supplied, Enlight Metals plans to execute the remaining 50,000 tonnes in Q4, backed by confirmed orders and sustained demand from infrastructure-led consumption. The second half of the year typically sees higher offtake from sectors such as metro rail, airports, industrial parks, logistics hubs and renewable energy projects.

The company attributes its performance to a strengthened supplier network, increased enterprise onboarding and stabilised large-scale operations. A streamlined supply chain and high supplier responsiveness have enabled consistent deliveries within 24 hours, particularly for EPC contractors and enterprise buyers engaged in time-sensitive infrastructure projects.

Commenting on the milestone, Vedant Goel, CEO and Co-founder of Enlight Metals, said the achievement validates the company’s execution model and on-ground delivery capabilities. He added that demand visibility and supply planning are aligned to close FY 2025–26 at the targeted volume.

Looking ahead, Enlight Metals aims to scale annual supplies to 2–2.2 lakh tonnes in FY 2026–27. The growth strategy includes deeper engagement with EPC contractors and OEMs, participation in national infrastructure programmes, and a phased, asset-light expansion of aggregation hubs and regional warehouses across key demand clusters.
