Vedanta Aluminium Launches Advanced Metals
for Automotive Industry at AutoEdge 2026
The AutoEdge 2026 conclave brought together leading companies across India’s automotive sector, and featured
engaging panel discussions, technical presentations, and expert insights into future industry trends
New Delhi, 20 August 2026: Vedanta Aluminium (BSE: 544780 | NSE: VAML), India’s leading aluminium
producer, today expanded its automotive solutions portfolio with the launch of two advanced offerings under
its best-selling Primary Foundry Alloy (PFA) range. These include the Copper-Doped Alloy, developed for high-
performance automotive applications, and the Vedanta Foundry Alloy (VFA), a versatile material for
enhanced durability, developed in collaboration with IIT Delhi. The two innovations represent a new frontier
in the development of next-generation automotives, enabling lighter, safer, and more efficient vehicles and
fuelling new possibilities in the automotive sector.
The two offerings were unveiled to top representatives from India’s leading automotive companies and
advanced component manufacturers at AutoEdge 2026, Vedanta Aluminium’s exclusive conclave for the
automotive industry. Now in its second edition, the conclave featured a series of engaging panel discussions,
technical presentations, and expert insights into future industry trends.
Vedanta Aluminium is poised to become the world’s largest primary billet producer with a capacity of 1.25
million tonnes per annum (MTPA), on completion of the ongoing capacity expansion at the BALCO plant in
Korba, Chhattisgarh. The company is also India’s largest PFA producer with an existing capacity of 380 kilo
tonnes per annum (KTPA). Its automotive portfolio comprises of PFA offerings used in alloy wheels, cylinder
heads, engine components and other automotive castings, along with specialised billets for HVAC applications
and crash-resistant engineering applications. In addition, it is expanding the share of value-added products in
its portfolio to 90%, driven by the increasing demand for high quality, sustainably produced aluminium in India
and globally.
Rajesh Kumar, CEO, Vedanta Aluminium, said, “India’s automotive industry is rapidly evolving, creating
demand for lighter, stronger and more sophisticated material solutions. Aluminium is uniquely positioned to
meet these parameters through its versatile combination of lightweighting, strength, durability, resistance to
corrosion, and high recyclability. At Vedanta Aluminium, we are strengthening our automotive-grade portfolio
with advanced next-generation metals that are fully developed and manufactured in India while meeting
world-class performance benchmarks. These innovations reinforce our commitment to the Make in India effort,
building globally competitive manufacturing capabilities within the nation.”
The two new offerings have been specially developed to support the automotive industry's growing need for
vehicles that are lighter, more efficient, and built to perform under demanding conditions. The Copper-Doped
Alloy leverages the strengthening properties of copper to enhance durability, wear resistance, and
performance at higher operating temperatures, making it particularly suitable for critical engine, transmission,
and powertrain components. Meanwhile, the Vedanta Foundry Alloy combines lightweighting with higher
strength, improved corrosion resistance, and enhanced casting performance, making it suitable for a wide
range of conventional and electric vehicle applications.
Together, these innovations enable automotive manufacturers to improve component longevity, enhance
vehicle efficiency and reliability, and meet the evolving performance requirements of next-generation

mobility. Building on its growing R&D capabilities, Vedanta Aluminium is working with OEMs and component
manufacturers to co-develop advanced material solutions.
The expanded portfolio is also closely aligned with the Indian automotive sector’s accelerating drive towards
localisation, supply chain resilience, and self-reliance in critical input materials. India is presently the world’s
largest market for two-wheelers and three-wheelers, and the third-largest for passenger and commercial
vehicles. By broadening the availability of high-performance, automotive-grade alloys designed and
manufactured in India, Vedanta Aluminium is enabling manufacturers to strengthen domestic sourcing,
reduce import dependency, and build agile, future-ready value chains. This directly supports India’s goal of
becoming a global automotive manufacturing hub under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat vision.
Vedanta Aluminium has integrated quality and sustainability at the heart of its product innovation, resulting
in a growing customer base spanning over 60 countries, including major automotive hubs such as the USA,
Japan, Italy, France and Germany. Its entire product range is also offered via Vedanta Metal Bazaar, the
world’s largest non-ferrous metals e-store, which has recently launched a new exports module for the
company’s global customers. Its smelters at Jharsuguda, Odisha and Korba, Chhattisgarh (BALCO) are certified
by the globally-recognised Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI)’s Performance Standards for
demonstrating sustainable operations. In addition, the company’s product range is the first in India to be
certified on all applicable standards by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). This is backed by a customer-
centric approach that combines bespoke alloy development, state-of-the-art manufacturing, and
comprehensive technical support to deliver enhanced value for the automotive industry.
