When we talk about the growth potential of Iron Ore based Industries in Odisha, our
state is considered to be mineral hub of India with 92% chromite,92% Nickel,52%
Bauxite,44%Manganese,33% Iron Ore and 24% Coal reserves of the country. The
state is the largest producer of stainless steel in the country and has more than 20%
of steel making capacity of the country. Major Steel producers like TATA steel,
Bhusan Steel Limited (BSL),Bhusan Power and Steel limited(BSPL), Jindal Stainless
Steel(JSL)and Jindal Steel and Power Limited have their mother plants in the sate
besides ESSAR Steel Limited which has started pellet production in the 1 st phase to
be followed with setting up an integrated Steel Plant.
Leaving aside these mega steel projects, our state have number of small and
medium steel plant who are producing steel through secondary route ie. SIP-EAF/IF-
Rolling mills. These units are also contributing a lot in enhancing the steel production
of our state. Also, there are number of standalone sponge Iron Plants and Pellet
plants who are also producing various input materials for making steel.
When we talk about the growth of steel, our state has made significant contribution in
national steel growth with respect to capacity building in terms of installed capacity.
M/s Jindal Steel works (JSL )has proposed a mega steel project of 10 MTPA with
900 MW power plant with an investment of Rs.50,000Crs and M/s Bhusan power
&Steel Limited have proposed for addition of downstream facilities and CPP of 150
