This brings the total investment to USD 6.09 Million (approx ₹50.55 Cr). This strategic move marks the commercial deployment of Himadri's LFP Cathode active and anode materials.

It also grants Himadri access to IBC's manufacturing facilities in South Korea and its upcoming Gigafactory in Bengaluru.
