We have recently acquired a 67% controlling interest in Nabha Steels and Metals, in Mandi
Gobindgarh, Punjab. With a capacity of 200,000 MTPA, this acquisition bolsters our backward integration capabilities. This strategic move enables JTL to venture into new product segments, broadening our market reach. Additionally, it will enhance coil production at the Raipur plant from 150,000 to 250,000 MTPA and increase long product output by 100,000 MTPA across Chhattisgarh and Punjab.
Furthermore, JTL intends to increase production capacity in Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh
through expansion initiatives. The initial phase aims to raise the overall capacity from 600,000 to 1,000,000 MTPA by introducing Direct Forming Technology (DFT) lines alongside traditional forming technology. This expansion will focus on manufacturing galvanized steel tubes and pipes.
This strategic initiative is set to improve plant capacity utilization, streamline manufacturing
processes, and broaden the range of Value-Added Products (VAPs), facilitating entry into new geographical markets. Following this, a significant expansion is planned for the Maharashtra plant to increase our manufacturing capacity to 2,000,000 MTPA. This expansion will enable JTL to effectively meet market demand and diversify its product portfolio In conclusion, we are pleased to report strong financial results for FY24, highlighting our strategic direction in navigating challenging market conditions.
