With which company has Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation launched a joint venture to set up an aluminium park at Angul, Odisha?
Show Hint
- SAIL
- GAIL
- NALCO
BHEL
The Correct Option is C
Approach Solution - 1
The Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation (IDCO) has partnered with the National Aluminium Company (NALCO) to develop an aluminium park in Angul, Odisha. This venture is expected to provide a significant boost to the aluminium sector in India. Why option (C) fits: NALCO is the primary entity associated with the aluminium sector in India, and the joint venture in Angul aligns with NALCO's operational interests. Eliminations: SAIL (A) focuses on steel, GAIL (B) is involved in gas transmission, and BHEL (D) works on energy-related projects, so none of them are linked to the aluminium industry. Hence, the correct answer is NALCO.
Approach Solution -2
Since the venture is specifically about aluminium, checking which of these public sector firms actually works in that metal narrows the choice immediately.
- SAIL: the Steel Authority of India is built around iron and steel production, not aluminium.
- GAIL: this company transports and markets natural gas, unrelated to metal parks.
- NALCO: the National Aluminium Company is India's leading aluminium producer and partnered with the Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation to set up the park at Angul.
- BHEL: Bharat Heavy Electricals makes power and industrial equipment, not aluminium.
Only the company whose core business is aluminium fits a joint venture for an aluminium park, which is NALCO.
Hence, the correct answer is NALCO.
