SYNOPSIS: A recycling company plans to set up a hydrometallurgy plant in Haryana to recover critical battery metals, advancing end-to-end recycling capabilities and aligning with India’s mission to strengthen domestic supply chains and reduce import dependence.

During Wednesday’s trading session, shares of a company involved in offering services for the collection, disposal, and recycling of e-waste surged around 11 percent on NSE, after the company announced plans of setting up a hydrometallurgy plant for critical EV battery metals.

With a market cap of Rs. 410 crores, shares of Namo eWaste Management Limited are currently trading in the green at Rs. 179.45 on NSE, up by over 7 percent, compared to its previous closing price of Rs. 166.95. The stock has delivered positive returns of around 8 percent in one year, and has gained by more than 16 percent in the last one month.

What’s the News:

According to the latest exchange disclosures on NSE, Namo eWaste Management Limited highlighted that, following the successful commissioning of its Nashik plant in FY25-26, the company is now advancing to the next phase of growth to capitalise on opportunities in the electric vehicle (EV) and battery recycling space. The Nashik facility processes lithium-ion batteries up to black mass and enables recovery of base metals such as copper, ferrous, and aluminium.

Building on this progress, the company has announced plans to set up a new hydrometallurgy plant in Faridabad, Haryana. This facility will process black mass further and enable in-house recovery of critical battery metals, including lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese. The expansion represents a significant step toward establishing a fully integrated, end-to-end recycling ecosystem, along with the generation of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) credits. The plant is expected to become operational by December 2026.

The proposed expansion aligns with the Government of India’s National Critical Mineral Mission, aimed at strengthening domestic supply chains and reducing reliance on imports of key battery materials.
