Warrants for the brand can be issued from July 10, although LME-registered warehouses holding Adani Copper Metal must include the brand in their off-warrant stock reports with immediate effect, the LME added.
The brand is manufactured by Adani Enterprises-owned Kutch Copper, one of India’s largest copper smelters, with an annual production capacity of 500,000 metric tons. The company applied for LME registration in August 2025.
According to Adani, the $1.2 billion Kutch copper facility in the western state of Gujarat is the world’s largest single-location plant of its kind, which is expected to reduce India’s dependence on imported copper.
India imported 238,080 tonnes of refined copper in 2025, down 18% from a year earlier, according to data from Trade Data Monitor, with Japan remaining the country’s largest supplier. (Reporting by Paulina DeWitt; Editing by Louise Havens)
