Water consumption intensity per rupee of turnover decreased to 0.000528 from 0.000542 in the previous year. The Malanjkhand Copper Project (MCP) and Khetri Copper Complex (KCC) units have implemented Zero Liquid Discharge systems.

Safety and Employee Metrics

The Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) for workers was 2.244 per million person-hours worked in FY26, compared to 0 in FY25. There were two fatalities among workers during the year, up from one employee fatality in FY25. Total recordable work-related injuries for workers rose to 67 from 19 in FY25.

What the Numbers Show

While overall GHG emission intensity improved significantly, the rise in worker LTIFR to 2.244 from zero indicates a regression in operational safety outcomes for the contract workforce, despite increased spending on safety training covering 27.41% of permanent workers.

The company paid penalties totaling approximately ₹2.3 crore to regulatory bodies including the Central Ground Water Authority and Indian Bureau of Mines for compliance issues related to mine dewatering and ore production limits.
