Moreover, its production hasn’t peaked, and the company is now attempting for 7 lakh tonnes per day, which may be achieved by the time this news gets published. The fact that this feat has been achieved by this dedicated work force in a very short span of 6 days amid lockdown and threat of Corona virus, when people are asked to stay in their homes.
