The import volume of unrefined copper in the form of concentrates in India was around 136 thousand metric tons in 2020. There was a continuous decline since 2017. This was due to the shutdown of the Tuticorin smelter and the impact of coronavirus pandemic. Tuticorin smelter accounted for 40 percent of the country's copper smelting capacity. Peak import volume was observed in 2013 with a volume of around 760 thousand metric tons.
