About the plant

The plant is spread across a sprawling 19,000 acres (77 km²) of which only 5,000 acres (20 km²) are used so far. The rest is still pristine shrub forest land.

The company also has a blast furnace grade limestone captive mine at Jaggayyapeta,a captive mine for dolomite at Madharam, a manganese ore captive mine atCheepurupalli. All the captive mines are located in the state of Andhra Pradesh. It has also got a mining lease for river sand in River Champavathi. The Plant has two main entrances—the first and the original Balacheruvu gate towards the satellite village of Gajuwaka, and the newer gate that opens to the Township and straight onto the NH5.
