Tata Steel on its path to becoming one of the world's lowest-cost steel producers

Initiated in November 2018, the second phase of the project aims to increase production capacity from 3 MTPA to 8 MTPA with an investment of Rs. 23,500 billion. Rajiv Kumar, Vice President of Operations at Tata Steel Kalinganagar, stated that the expansion includes raw material capacity, infrastructure and downstream facilities, including India's largest blast furnace.

The project, which is now 80% complete, focuses on flat steel production for value-added segments such as automotive, general engineering, oil and gas, lifting and earthmoving.

Having a total production capacity of 26.6 MTPA in its Indian operations, Tata Steel aims to become one of the lowest cost steel producers in the world thanks to the advanced technologies implemented at the Kalinganagar facility.
