Aluminium and copper are the two most critical metals for EVs, solar panels, wind turbines and grid transmission, India&#8217;s energy transition requires 10x more non ferrous metal than traditional fossil fuel infrastructure. Hindalco Industries Ltd at Rs 1.7 lakh crore is India&#8217;s largest aluminium company and a global leader through Novelis (the world&#8217;s largest aluminium rolling company). National Aluminium Company Ltd (Nalco) is the PSU integrated bauxite to aluminium producer. Vedanta Ltd spans aluminium, zinc and copper with India&#8217;s most diversified non ferrous metals portfolio. Gravita India Ltd is the leader in lead and aluminium recycling, an emerging circular economy play. Hindustan Copper Ltd is India&#8217;s only integrated copper mining company.<\/p>\n<p>Ankit Jaiswal, Senior Research Analyst at Univest, sees Hindalco as one of India&#8217;s finest manufacturing companies, a globally competitive aluminium producer with Novelis&#8217;s automotive aluminium sheet business for EV bodies commanding 30 percent global market share. Kunal Singla, Associate Director at Univest, highlights that each EV requires 4 times more aluminium and 3 times more copper than a traditional ICE vehicle, creating a structural supercycle that will persist for 15 to 20 years as global EV penetration rises from 18 to 60 percent.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey
