🔖Rare Earth Elements (REE) in India
Rare Earth Elements (REEs) refer to 17 critical metals used in high-tech industries.
They are essential for manufacturing electric vehicle (EV) motors, wind turbines, advanced sensors, smartphones, and military equipment.
Among the most important REEs are neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium - especially used in permanent magnets for EVs and hybrids.
🔖Types of REE
Magnetic REE (crucial for green technologies)
Prmanent magnets (Neodymium, Praseodymium, Dysprosium, and Terbium)
🔖China dominance
China accounts for more than 70% of global REE mining
China handles more than 90% of global REE processing and refining, a complex and hazardous process requiring advanced technology and significant infrastructure.
In April 2025, China imposed strict export licensing requirements on several rare earth elements.
While not a full export ban, this move significantly delays and restricts global access to critical REE supplies, effectively tightening its grip on the global supply chain.
🔖India’s REE
India reportedly holds the 5th largest REE resources globally.
However, Indian REE deposits are Low-grade (lean in concentration). Radioactive (often tied with thorium, making extraction complex and costly).
Heavy Rare Earth Elements (HREE) like Dysprosium and Terbium are not available in extractable quantities.
Only Neodymium and Praseodymium are extractable (up to 99.9% purity) and Present in very low concentrations (0.0011% - 0.012%) in BSM (Beach Sand Minerals) ores.
India is dominated by Light Rare Earth Elements (LREE).
🔖REE Value Chain Status in India
➡️Existing capabilities
Mining, beneficiation, oxide refining, and metal extraction.
➡️Missing capabilities
Industrial-scale production of REE-based alloys, magnets, and final components (e.g., motors).
Intermediate industry not developed due to Lack of technology access.
🔖Import Dependency
India heavily imports REEs due to limited domestic processing
Major suppliers includes China (largest), Japan, Russia, USA, Korea.
Imports have risen from 1,848 tonnes (2019–20) to 2,270 tonnes (2023–24).
🔖Strategic Policy Initiatives
National Critical Mineral Mission launched to secure supply chains.
Boosts domestic exploration and international sourcing.
➡️GSI's Exploration (2021–2025)
Total 195 critical mineral projects in India (2024–25).
More than 35 projects in Rajasthan, including for Neodymium, Dysprosium, and other REE/RM.
Department of Atomic Energy discovered 111,845 tonnes of in-situ REO in Rajasthan (Balotra).

🗣️ “We are a debt-free company with disciplined capital deployment and strategic capex priorities.”
🔟 Investor’s Compass View – P/E Backed by Execution
🔹You’re not buying past EPS, you're backing an infra flywheel
🔹Underwriting India's HVDC backbone, digital grid scaling, and sticky services
🔹Margins are rising. Cash is compounding. Visibility is built-in.
🗣️ “The next few years are about execution, localization, and scaling our service and digital footprint. India is just getting started.”

- But execution risk is real, and margin growth is muted.
- Transrail is the stealth compounder high ROCE, clean execution, global EPC wins, and capital-light scaling.
📌 In infra, size gets attention. ROCE gets returns.
✅ For a portfolio that values capital efficiency and long-term compounding - Transrail wins.
Disc : I have both in my long term portfolio . But given more allocation to Transrail
- No Buy/Sell recommendation
