Jindal Steel Expands Angul Steel Plant Capacity to 12 MTPA with New Furnace

Jindal Steel has completed its major 6 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) expansion at the Angul Integrated Steel Complex in Odisha. The milestone was achieved with the commissioning of the third Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF-3) with a capacity of 3 MTPA.

With this addition, the total crude steel capacity of the Angul plant has increased to 12 MTPA, making it one of the largest single-location integrated steel complexes in India.

Completion of Expansion Infrastructure

The expansion also includes the operationalisation of BOF-2 and BOF-3 along with several associated upstream and downstream facilities. These facilities include coke ovens, a cold rolling mill (CRM) complex, and other critical infrastructure required for efficient steel production.

The integration of these facilities ensures smooth operations and supports the ramp-up of the plant’s expanded capacity. The project has been completed within the planned timeframe, demonstrating the company’s focus on timely execution of large-scale industrial projects.

Impact on Overall Steel Capacity

Following the expansion at the Angul facility, the company’s overall crude steel capacity has increased to 15.6 MTPA. This includes 12 MTPA capacity at the Angul complex and an additional 3.6 MTPA capacity at its facility in Raigarh.

The higher production capacity is expected to support increased volumes, improve capacity utilisation, and contribute to stronger revenue growth.
