The firm has been promoted by Shri. Vijay Kumar Agrawal. 2.2 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF NATURE OF THE PROJECT NR TMT (India) Private Limited has obtained Environment Clearance from Chhattisgarh Environment Conservation Board (CECB), Raipur vide letter no. 390 / SEIAA / Rolling / Raigarh / 576 Naya Raipur dt for establishment of 3 x 7 T Induction Furnaces for manufacturing 56,700 TPA of Hot metal & Rolling Mill to manufacture 55,000 TPA of Rolled products at Plot No.: 211, 213 (Part) & 212 (Part), Sector L, O.P. Jindal Industrial Park, Village Punjipathra, Tehsil Gharghoda, District Raigarh, Chhattisgarh. Accordingly obtained Consent to Establishment and Consent to Operate from CECB. Now, we proposed to upgrade existing 3 x 7 T to 3 x 12 T Induction Furnaces and establishment of New 2 x 12 T Induction Furnaces and upgrade the existing Rolling Mill from 55,000 TPA to 1,57,500 TPA [Hot Charging] in the existing plant premises of 10.5 acres at Plot No.: 211, 213 (Part) & 212 (Part), Sector L, O.P. Jindal Industrial Park, Village Punjipathra, Tehsil Gharghoda, District Raigarh, Chhattisgarh. 2.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY AND OR REGION Indian demand is projected to rise to 300 million tonnes by Given the strong demand scenario, most global steel players are in a massive capacity expansion mode, either through brownfield or Greenfield route. Steel production capacity in India is expected to touch 170 million tonnes by While Greenfield projects are slated to add 30 million tonnes, brownfield expansions are estimated to add 50 million tonnes to the existing capacity of 90 million tonnes. Steel is manufactured as a globally tradable product with no major trade barriers across national boundaries to be seen currently. There is also no inherent resource related constraints which may significantly affect production of the same or its capacity creation to respond to demand increases in the global market. Even the government policy restrictions have been negligible worldwide and even if there are any the same to respond to 2

6 specific conditions in the market and have always been temporary. Therefore, the industry in general and at a global level is unlikely to throw up substantive competition issues in any national policy framework. Further, there are no natural monopoly characteristics in steel. Therefore, one may not expect complex competition issues as those witnessed in industries like telecom, electricity, natural gas, oil, etc. 2.4 DEMAND AND SUPPLY GAP Demand for steel is high and as soon as they are processed, they will be supplied on PAN India basis to various type of consumers & users. 2.5 EXPORT POSSIBILITY Export of steel is always available. The government of India is also encouraging export of steel. Though there is the possibility of export of steel in and also a good demand of steel in local market as building and construction material. The proposed expansion project is to fulfill the local demand and address to local market..2.6 DOMESTIC/EXPORT MARKETS While the demand for steel will continue to grow in traditional sectors such as infrastructure, construction, housing automotive, steel tubes and pipes, consumer durables, packaging, and ground transportation, specialized steel will be increasingly used in hi-tech engineering industries such as power generation, petrochemicals, fertilizers, etc. The new airports and railway metro projects will require a large amount of steel. Hence the domestic and export markets for steel sector will rise. 2.7 EMPLOYMENT GENERATION (DIRECT AND INDIRECT) DUE TO THE PROJECT The local areas will be benefited by way of generation of employment opportunities, increased demand for local products and services. There will be an overall improvement in the income level of the local people. The project creates employment to about 100 persons directly once the whole plant comes to the operational stage and about 200 persons during construction stage. Top priority will be given to locals for Semi-Skilled and Unskilled jobs. With the development of this Plant there will be lot of scope for more ancillary development, which in turn will benefit the nation. 3

7 There will be a certain enhancement of educational and medical standards of people in the study area. There will be generally positive and beneficial impacts by way of economic improvements, transportation, aesthetic environment and business generation. There will be an overall upliftment of socio-economic status of people in the area with the implementation of the project. 4
