Gravita India advanced 2.43% to Rs 46.30 after the company said that its step down subsidiary in West Africa has doubled the production capacity of its existing lead recycling plant to 12,000 MTPA.

Gravita India informed that its step down subsidiary, Recyclers Ghana, in Ghana, West Africa has enhanced the production capacity of its existing lead recycling plant from 6,000 MTPA to 12,000 MTPA. The group has made investment of approximately Rs 21 crore for establishment of this recycling plant which has been invested from internal accruals of the company.

Gravita Group is among top most recycling companies across the globe and installation of this plant will help company to increase its footprints and to expand its horizons across the globe.
