India Steel 2012 STI Release

July 02, 2012

India has seen crude steel production increase by 47 metric tons or 174% since the start of the 21st century an average annual increase in output of 14.5%. It now ranks as the fourth largest producer in the world. Much of this growth has come from the private sector, which now accounts for three-quarters of total production. This Special Report compiled in India by Global Business Reports reveals through interviews with key industrial players how this remarkable growth has been achieved. Additional articles review India’s passion for small and large-scale DRI plants, its vast ore reserves but troubled development of these and how a 105 year-old steel site has moved into modern times.
