4 About the Industry India is the third-largest crude steel producer in the world. The growth in the Indian steel sector is driven by domestic availability of raw materials such as iron ore and cost-effective labour. The steel sector has been a major contributor to India s manufacturing output. In 2015, India produced 91.5 million tonnes (MT) of finished steel. Total finished steel production in the country increased at a CAGR of 7.5% over FY Driven by rising infrastructure development and growing demand for automotives, steel consumption is expected to reach 104 MT by The steel sector in India contributes nearly 2% of the country s gross domestic product (GDP) and employs over 600,000 people. The per capita consumption of total finished steel in the country has risen from 51 Kg in to about 59 Kg in India's steel consumption for FY is estimated to increase by 7%, higher than 2% growth last year, due to improving economic activity. India s steel production is expected to increase from 100 MTPA to MTPA by FY16 and 300 MTPA by The Government of India has allowed 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the steel sector under the automatic route. Nearly 301 MoUs have been signed with various states for planned capacity of about MT. A new scheme, The scheme for the promotion of R&D in the iron and steel sector, has been approved with budgetary provision of US$ 24.6 million to initiate and implement the provisions of the scheme as per the 11th Five-Year Plan which has continued in the 12 th Five Year Plan. The development of technology for Cold-Rolled Grain Oriented (CRGO) steel sheets and other value-added products is also included under the policy purview and is allocated US$ 6.7 million. According to the data released by Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), the Indian metallurgical industries attracted Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) to the tune of US$ 8.7 billion, respectively, in the period April 2000 May Management Outlook The Government of India is aiming to scale up steel production in the country to 300 MT by 2025 from 81 MT in The Ministry of Steel announced investment in modernisation and expansion of steel plants of Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) and Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Limited (RINL) in various states to enhance the crude steel production capacity in the current phase from 12.8 MTPA to 21.4 MTPA and from 3.0 MTPA to 6.3 MTPA respectively. The Government has also planned Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) with four iron ore rich states i.e., Karnataka, Jharkhand, Orissa, and Chhattisgarh to set up plants having capacity between 3 to 6 MTPA. A Project Monitoring Group (PMG) has been constituted under the Cabinet Secretariat to fast track various clearances/resolution of issues related to investments of Rs. 1,000 crore (US$ 152 million) or more. To increase domestic value addition and improve iron ore availability for domestic steel industry, duty on export of iron ore has been increased to 30%. Due to slowing Chinese economy and expanded manufacturing capacities, most Chinese Companies involved in similar product lines are entering the export markets including India and offering low prices to continue to operate its business. However, with the establishment of dedicated facilities through associate companies, NFL expects the production cost to be lower in the coming months and stay competitive. Also, it hopes that the Make in India policy of the Government will translate into reduction in cost of inputs, service and infrastructure costs related to manufacturing industries. NFL expects the power costs to increase in the coming years to sustain the state owned electricity departments. As a result, being a power intensive component manufacturing set up, the cost of production might increase and it may not be possible to pass the cost increase to the buyers. Thus, the Company will take steps to install renewable energy generation like wind mills or solar to offset the power cost increase. Huge scope for growth is offered by India s comparatively low per capita steel consumption and the expected rise in consumption due to increased infrastructure construction and the thriving automobile and railways sectors.
