Ferro alloys manufacturer Nava Bharat Ventures on Thursday said it has entered into a five-year agreement with a Tata Steel arm for conversion of high carbon ferro chrome.

The duration of the conversion agreement with TSML is from December 1, 2020, to March 31, 2025". The company added that the agreement postulates that the entire smelting capacity of the Odisha plant is dedicated to TSML to produce up to 70,000 metric tonnes of high carbon ferro chrome per annum.
