Arun Misra, chief executive officer, said: We have started the year on a strong note with our highest-ever first quarter mined metal production of 268 kilo tonnes (KT) for the fifth consecutive year, reflecting the strength of our world-class assets and our relentless focus on operational excellence. Our debottlenecking initiatives continue to enhance refined metal production and reinforce our position as one of the world's lowest-cost zinc producers. As demand for zinc continues to be driven by infrastructure and the energy transition, we remain committed to delivering responsible growth and long-term value for our stakeholders.
