Steel - Make in India
#myLOVESTEELideas to popularise use of
steel
Turnaround of Steel CPSEs in 2017-18
The National
Steel Policy 2017 and Domestically Manufactured Iron & Steel Products
Policy 2017, has led to huge growth in both production and consumption of
steel. The per capita consumption has risen from 59 kgs in 2013-14 to 69 kgs in
2017-18. India has produced 103 Million Tonnes of steel in 2017-18 and will
soon become the second largest producer of steel in the world in the year 2018.
The capacity of steel production has increased from 97 Million Tonnes in
2012-13 to 138 Million Tonnes in 2017-18. The Government of India’s emphasis
and commitment to building infrastructure, Make-in-India and Smart City Mission
has led to the consumption of steel growing dramatically. More than 50%
production is in the secondary steel sector comprising of small producers spread
across the country employing a large number of people directly or indirectly.
·
Ministry of steel is
promoting rural and urban development through low cost housing designs by
INSDAG and various other structures like bridges, culverts, anganwadis,
panchayat halls and community toilet.
·
Ministry of Steel has
in collaboration with M/o Railways, Road Transport, Rural Development,
Environment and Forest, Coal and Consumer Affairs increased steel usage and
fast tracking of steel projects.
Use of Steel in Indian Railway tracks
·
The Ministry of Steel
utilized MyGov platform to crowd source ideas for increasing steel consumption
in India.
·
A contest was conducted
inviting ideas in steel sector called #myLOVESTEELideas:
The first prize was awarded to Sumit Gupta from
Delhi for his idea of Steel based expandable tiny homes for providing low cost
basic housing with solar panels and bio toilets.
Second Prize was awarded to Hareesh S. from
Thiruvanthapuram for his idea of designs for Stainless steel waste bin,
incorporating enclosed segregated storage and with provisions for advertising
space.
Third prize was awarded to Vasim Malek
from Nadiad City, Gujarat for his idea of laying underground
permanent steel utility ducting along roads and in apartments for eliminating
disruption of daily life of citizens due to repeated digging up.
|
Flagship programmes like 100
Smart Cities Mission, Housing for all Mission, Atal Mission for
Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation and high-speed bullet trains and
metro trains all will hugely contribute in increasing steel demand in our
country.

Singh
Union Minister for Steel

Steel Industry without doubt
is a major industrial sector which plays a very important role in the
economic development of any nation. The Indian Steel Industry has made
significant contribution to the all-round economic development of India.

Major
Initiatives and achievements
BOOST TO SECONDARY STEEL SECTOR
Memorandum
of Understanding [MoUs] With Capital Goods Manufactures Under ‘Make In India’
Initiative
The National Steel Policy - 2017 envisages creation of 300 million tonnes
(MT) of steel capacity in the country by 2030-31 as against existing capacity
of about 137 MT. The estimated import of plant and equipment, for reaching 300
MT capacity, will be around USD 25 billion. Further, it is estimated that at
300 MT capacity level, India will have to spend about USD 500 million annually
for import of proprietary and other spares.
Ministry of Steel organized a Conclave on “Capital Goods in Steel Sector:
Manufacturing in India” in Bhubaneshwar, Odisha on 23.10.2018. The Conclave is
an initiative to promote domestic capacity and capability building and
manufacturing of capital goods in steel sector.
To accomplish the Vision of the Government of India, SAIL signed MOUs
during the Conclave with Capital Goods manufacturers’ (BHEL, HEC and MECON) so
as to give a boost to indigenization of manufacturing of Capital goods related
to steel sector.
Award Scheme for Secondary Steel Producers
Ministry
of Steel has instituted an Award Scheme for Secondary Steel Producers in the
year 2018, to give recognition for their contribution in the national economy
and to encourage these producers to achieve high standards of efficiency,
quality, safety & economy in operation and also to promote innovation,
waste utilization, reduction in GHG emission etc. The awards were given away at
the Secondary Steel Sector Conclave held on September 13, 2018 for the
performance year 2016-17.
DOMESTICALLY MANUFACTURED IRON AND STEEL PRODUCTS (DMI&SP) POLICY
The policy of preference to
domestic manufacturers of iron and steel products (DMI&SP) which was rolled
out in May,2017 has brought an estimated savings of around Rs.8500 crores worth
of foreign exchange.
Steel Research and Technology Mission
of India (SRTMI)
Government has facilitated
setting up of an innovative institutional mechanism namely SRTMI to promote
joint collaborative research projects of national importance in iron &
steel sector in India. This is an industry driven platform and the initial
corpus is being funded by the major steel companies. SRTMI has been registered
under the Societies Registration Act on 14th October 2015. SRTMI is
actively interacting with steel companies, research labs & academia to
spearhead research for the iron & steel sector.
Budget for R&D
Ministry of Steel is financing the promotion in Research and Development
in Steel Sector, an R&D scheme. During the year 2018, 10 R&D
projects have been approved with total cost of Rs 43.87 crore with financial assistance
of Rs. 40.79 crore from the Government budget. 25 R&D projects are in
progress. Ministry of Steel is also funding 50% (Rs. 5.52 crore) in 3 R&D
projects being pursued under the IMPRINT Scheme of MHRD with a total cost of Rs
11.04 crore.
R&D through Steel Development Fund
During the year 2018, 9
on-going R&D projects were pursued with under the SDF assisted R&D
scheme.
Centre of
Excellence in Steel Technology
Ministry of Steel is providing
financial assistance for setting up of Centre of Excellences for creation of
world class facility for metallurgical engineering and also for development of
human resource for the steel sector. Such facilities are promoting R&D for
the iron & steel sector and also generate skilled manpower for the sector.
Four such Centers have been set up/ approved at IIT Kharagpur, IIT Bombay, IIT,
BHU and IIT, Madras.
Quality control of Steel and
Steel Products
Ministry of Steel is the leading Ministry with maximum coverage of
products under the BIS certifications marks scheme. More than 85% steel
products in the country are covered under Mandatory Quality Control Orders.
These orders prohibit, import, sale and distribution of substandard steel
products. This ensures better health & safety standards for end-users. Ministry
of Steel has so far covered 47 carbon steel and 6 stainless steel products
standards under the Mandatory BIS Certification scheme. Government has
been facilitating supply of quality steel for critical end-use applications
such as infrastructure, construction, housing and engineering sector.
NEDO Model Projects
NEDO is the New Energy and
Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) established as a Japanese
Governmental organization in 1980 to promote the development and introduction
of new energy technologies and research and development of industrial
technology. NEDO is active in a wide variety of areas as one of the largest
public research and development management organizations in Japan.
With the aim of raising the level
of industrial technology, NEDO pursues research and development of advanced new
technology. Drawing on its considerable management know-how, NEDO carries out
projects to explore future technology seeds as well as mid- to long-term
projects that form the basis of industrial development. It also supports
research related to practical application.
Under the NEDO model projects,
Ministry of Steel, with financial assistance from Government of Japan,
facilitated setting up of model projects in integrated steel plants to promote energy
efficient, clean and green technologies. During the period April 2014-March
2018, one model project on Energy Management System has been approved and is
under implementation at ISP Burnpur of SAIL.
UNPD Project
Ministry
of Steel in association with UNDP and AusAid have implemented the project “Up
scaling Energy Efficient Production in Small Scale Steel Industry in India”.
Through this project, skill development training was imparted to implement
energy efficient technologies in 283 re-rolling mills and 4 induction furnace
units for improvement of productivity, reduction in energy consumption and GHG
emission. This resulted in average 24% reduction in energy consumption in these
units.
STEEL AUTHORITY OF INDIA LIMITED (SAIL)
