Company is lead by Basant Lall Shaw as chairman and Arbind Jayaswal as managing director. Commercial operations commenced in 1976 to manufacture cast iron pipes and fittings by setting up the first foundry at Nagpur. It specialised in the manufacture of grey iron castings for railway tracks such as sleepers, brake blocks, bearing plates and municipal/public works castings such as soil/rain water pipes and fittings, manhole covers, etc. In 1987, the second foundry unit was established at Bhilai, MP. With a further increase in demand, the third unit was established in Anjore, MP, in 1991. To diversify its activities, NECO purchased a newly erected solvent extraction plant with a crushing capacity of 200 tcd and refining capacity of 25 tpd in Mar.'93. This was subsequently enhanced to 500 tcd and 50 tpd respectively. The company came out with a public issue in Dec.'94 to fund the expansion-cum-modernisation. In 1995-96, the company proposed to set up a coal washery project in the Chhindwara district of Madhya Pradesh with a capital outlay of Rs.410.000 millions.

On commencement of thin Coking Coat Mine the Company’s dependence on Import of this vital raw material would reduce considerably.

 

The Company has with a view to reap benefits of captive Coal and Iron Ore Mines, plumed for further development of its Mines, setting up of Coat Washeries, enhancing capacities in Sponge Iron Plants and their associated Power Plants. Steel Melt Shop and Rolling Mill in its existing Sleet Plant Complex. Necessary steps are being taken to for enhancement of the mining capacities also so as to cater future requirements of Coal for the proposed expansions.
