New Delhi, January 13
Billionaire Gautam Adani’s group and South Korea’s Posco have signed an initial pact to explore business opportunities to invest around $5 billion on projects that include setting up an integrated steel mill at Mundra in Gujarat, the two firms said on Thursday.
The non-binding pact, if it fructifies, will give Adani Group an entry into steel manufacturing.
