Currently, overall price of the three-month futures of aluminium on LME is down by 8.69 per cent in 2020 so far.
NALCO’s aluminium products and alumina account for nearly two-thirds of the company’s gross topline, while the sales of chemicals contribute to the rest. NALCO manufactures wire rods, billets, coils, and chequered sheets.
