India has emerged as a global leader in renewable energy, steadily expanding its clean energy capacity to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. As of 2025, the country has reached over 220 GW of installed renewable energy capacity, with solar and wind making up the bulk of this progress. India now ranks among the top four nations worldwide in renewable capacity, reflecting its strong policy push and infrastructure development. With a national target of 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030 and net zero by 2070, the country is investing heavily in solar parks, wind corridors, and energy storage solutions to power a greener future.
In alignment with India’s ambitious transition to sustainable energy, the Atha Group has consistently demonstrated its commitment to clean energy and environmental stewardship. Recognizing the critical need to decarbonize core sectors like mining, steel, and power, the Group embarked on a long-term renewable energy strategy over a decade ago.
Our journey began with strategic investments in solar power across six Indian states—Karnataka, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, and Tamil Nadu. These early initiatives laid the foundation for a pan-India presence in the renewable sector. Over time, this portfolio expanded to include nine solar projects with a cumulative installed capacity of 404 MW, contributing significantly to the country’s green energy grid.
In line with our broader business strategy, these assets were successfully monetized, demonstrating our ability to not only execute capital-intensive green projects but also generate sustained value from them. This prudent recycling of capital is now being channelled back into energy-efficient infrastructure across our operating companies.
Today, the Atha Group is refocusing its renewable energy expertise into captive solar power projects and clean energy integration for our mining, steel and new businesses. By aligning our internal energy needs with sustainable sources, we aim to reduce our carbon footprint, improve operational efficiency, and contribute meaningfully to India's vision and goals.
Our renewable energy efforts are part of a broader commitment to environmental responsibility—covering areas such as GHG emissions reduction, water and waste management, biodiversity conservation, and responsible resource use—ensuring that sustainability remains a core pillar of the Group’s growth story.
