Page 18: Steel industry in india

INDIAN STEEL INDUSTRY: EVOLUTION AND GROWTH

Steel making in India can be traced back to 400 BC. The foundation of modern steel industry in India was led down in 1874 by establishment of steel making facility of Bengal Iron Works (BIW) in Kulti (West Bengal).

Beginning of large scale steel production started with establishment of Tata steel plant in 1907 in Jamshedpur, which started production in 1912.

Later large steel plants in India were established in Bokaro, Durgapur, Bhilai, Burnpur and Bhadrawati.

Except Tata Steel, steel production in India was confined to public sector companies under control of SAIL till 1990s.

Post liberalization(1991) large scale development in steel industry was witnessed due to participation of private players and huge influx of foreign investment in steel industry of India.

Page 19: Steel industry in india

STEEL PRODUCTION TREND IN INDIA

Post independence steel production in India showed a considerable growth in capacity.

Finished steel production increased from 1.1 MT in 1951 to 14.33 MT in 1991-92.

Post liberalization the growth trend continued however at a higher pace and finished steel production reached 73.7 MT(provisional) for 2011-12.

During the period FY 07 to FY 12 crude steel production has attained growth at CAGR of about 7.7 %.

While the average capacity utilization remained near 89 percent of the total production capacity.

During the twelfth five year plan crude steel production is estimated to grow at CAGR of about 11.3 % due to large scale capacity addition plans for steel production during this period.

LEADING STEEL PRODUCERS IN INDIA

Steel making in India is concentrated along mineral rich belt of India, as vicinity to supply of raw materials like iron ore and coal provides considerable economic advantage.

Most of the large scale steel making facilities are concentrated in state of Jharkhand, Orissa, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh and Karnataka.

Steel production in India is leaded by SAIL, Tata Steel, JSW and others, while SAIL continues to be the largest steel producer in India.

Steel production in India which was primarily reserved for government companies till liberalization now sees dominance of private companies in terms of production share.

Share of private sector companies in crude steel production raised from 49 % in FY 01 to 75 % in FY 11.

While the share of private sector companies in finished steel production increased from 68 % in FY 01 to 80 % in FY 11.

4. India’s Steel Import Export Scenario and Future Prospects- Steel import trend and future scenario- Steel export trend and future scenario

Page 45: Steel industry in india

STEEL IMPORT TREND AND FUTURE SCENARIO

India has been a net importer of steel, primarily of high grade steel and special steel products.

Deregulation and reduction in import duties on steel imports has favoured steel imports.

Steel imports has increased during the past decade due to surge in domestic demand and reduction in price differential between imported steel and domestic steel.

Import volumes have been fluctuating during the past five years and as per working group estimates steel imports during 12th FYP is estimated to be in 5-6 MT range.

Page 46: Steel industry in india

STEEL IMPORT TREND AND FUTURE SCENARIO

Page 47: Steel industry in india

STEEL EXPORT TREND AND FUTURE SCENARIO

Liberalization and free trade policy helped growth of steel exports from India.

Most of the steel exports from India consists of value added steel products with higher margins.

To remain competitive globally India needs to grow share of value added and sophisticated steel product in its export basket.

Steel exports from India declined during 2008-11 period due to subdued demand of steel globally.

Steel export is expected to regain momentum as the global economy revives.

Steel exports is estimated to grow gradually from about 4 MT during FY 13 to 7 MT by FY 17.

5. Raw Material Supplies for Steel Industry: Is India Self Sufficient?- Assessing raw material supply scenario for India- Raw material demand by steel industry- Initiatives that will improve & secure raw materials supply

Page 51: Steel industry in india

ASSESSING RAW MATERIAL SUPPLY SCENARIO FOR INDIA

Raw material accounts for about 30-50% of the total cost of steel production in India.

Raw materials for steel making includes iron ore, coke, lime, Ferro-alloys and refractories etc.

India has a huge iron ore reserve of about 28.52 billion tons.

About 60-70 % of the iron ore produced is consumed domestically and remaining (mostly fines) is exported.

India lags in coking coal reserves and have only 5.3 billion tons of coking coal reserves.

India meets more than 50 percent of coking coal demand through imports and imports will grow in parallel with increasing steel production capacity.

Page 52: Steel industry in india

RAW MATERIAL DEMAND BY STEEL INDUSTRY

About 2.5 to 3.5 ton of raw materials is required per ton of crude steel production in India.

With increasing crude steel production capacities demand for main raw materials like iron ore and coking coal by steel industry will increase at faster pace.

Page 53: Steel industry in india

RAW MATERIAL DEMAND BY STEEL INDUSTRY

Page 54: Steel industry in india

INITIATIVES THAT WILL IMPROVE & SECURE RAW MATERIALS SUPPLY

Indian steel industry requires reliable and economical raw material supplies to remain competitive on global platform.

Being deficient in coking coal and rich in iron ore fines India needs to adapt steel making technologies which are suitable for low grade Indian coal and iron ore fines.

India requires technology inputs and investments to increase sintering and pelletisation facility for making use of iron ore fines.

Indian companies needs to acquire coking coal assets overseas to assure uninterrupted and economic supply of coking coal for its steel Industry.

6. Inadequate Infrastructure: A Major Concern for Steel Industry in India- Infrastructure issues for steel industry in India- Infrastructure addition during twelfth five year plans (2012-17)- Actions to boost infrastructure support to steel industry

Page 58: Steel industry in india

INFRASTRUCTURE ISSUES FOR STEEL INDUSTRY IN INDIA

Steel industry is heavily dependent on raw material and bulk movement.

For every tonne of steel produced about four tonnes of raw materials requires to be transported.

Indian steel industry is facing difficulties and delays caused due to inadequate infrastructure for transportation and handling bulk materials.

Most of the steel plant does not have proper connectivity through rail network to mines and ports.

Bulk handling facility at majority of the ports, mines and steel plants are of low capacity causing delays in loading & unloading.

In most cases road networks connecting steel plants to mines and ports are congested leading to delays in supply and delivery of raw material and other items.

7. Indian Steel Industry and Increasing Role of Technology- Technological exposure of Indian steel industry- Indian steel industry needs to adapt latest technologies

Page 65: Steel industry in india

TECHNOLOGICAL EXPOSURE OF INDIAN STEEL INDUSTRY

Indian steel industry is highly fragmented with large number of small to large scale producers.

Use of steel making technologies varies among different steel making units.

With overall low level of advanced technological exposure, Indian steel industry faces issues of quality, efficiency, hazards and process standards.

The overall use of latest and modern technologies is inadequate in the entire steel industry value chain comprising of raw material mining and processing, transportation and steel making.

This leaves a broad scope for process improvement through introduction of latest and efficient technology

Page 66: Steel industry in india

TECHNOLOGICAL EXPOSURE OF INDIAN STEEL INDUSTRY

RAW MATERIAL SUPPLY • Low mechanization level & latest technology

input: for mining and processing raw materials• Inadequate facility: for use of iron ore fines using

pelletisation & sintering technology• Lack of coal processing & washing technology :

to make higher use of low grade Indian coal • Inadequate facility: for raw material loading and

transportation • Lack of facility: for use of raw material rejects

STEEL MAKING PROCESS• Most of steel making facilities use: old and less

efficient steel making technology• Expenditure on research and development: is

considerably low• Present steel making facility: not suitable for Indian

iron ore fines and high ash coal• Relatively lower number of steel plants: with facility to

make complex steel products• On average Indian steel industry lags: in process

efficiency and hazard control
