Out of this, the company’s contribution was 20.9 Lakhs (31.5%). Some of the key factors that pulled the alumina prices lower during 2019-20 were excess production, owing to the resumption of Alunorte Refinery and commencement of production at Al-Taweelah Refinery in the UAE. The price decline was also due to slow global demand for aluminium, with user industries underperforming throughout the year. International Alumina prices have recovered a little during May-June, 2020, as major consumer China’s economy seems to be recovering well from the COVID-19 pandemic
