Analysis: Maithan Alloys Limited

NSE:MAITHANALL Ferro Alloys Market cap: ₹3.0K cr

Growth thesis

Maithan Alloys produces ferro-manganese and silico-manganese alloys for steelmaking, with domestic sales to Steel Authority of India and export-focused operations. Key segments include Kalyaneshwari (ferro-manganese for domestic market), Brynihat (ferro-silicon), and Visakhapatnam (export-oriented ferro-manganese). Growth hinges on a 1.2 lakh tpa Greenfield plant in West Bengal (24-month timeline, 275 cr CAPEX) and inorganic acquisitions. Over 2-3 years, the Greenfield project will double capacity, leveraging India’s 16 million tonne steel expansion plan. Execution risks center on environmental clearance delays for the West Bengal plant, previously delayed by 6 months. The company maintains a 15-17% EBITDA margin target through cost discipline, with 650 cr surplus cash earmarked for strategic expansion.
