Baxi & Company JSW GROUP AMALGAMATES LARGE The $12 billion JSW Group will now have a single group interface for all its PROJECT DIVISIONS large project divisions in the steel and OF STEEL & CEMENT cement businesses. BUSINESSES Following the successful integration of its retail trade across Steel and Cement into JSW One in the East, the $12 billion JSW Group will now have a single group interface for all its Large Project divisions in the Steel and Cement businesses. The Indian conglomerate has created Aikyam, a technology platform where details can be accessed by the Managers of Large Project Divisions from both these businesses to capitalize on the potential opportunities. Aikyam will digitize the end-to-end institutional sales processes at JSW Group by integrating data across the two business entities to create a single 360 degree view of the large project customers. This will enable its group of Client Managers to elevate their interactions with large clients and identify opportunities to cross sell, thereby offering an enhanced customer experience to these clients, the company said in a statement. Commenting on the integrated offering for Large project Businesses, Parth Jindal, Director of JSW One said, “JSW Group has the unique advantage of providing an integrated offering to its large customers in the Infrastructure & Building industries space. We have leveraged the JSW One advantage for our retail customers successfully in the Eastern part of India and are now extending it to our Large Project clientele through our Aikyam initiative. “I expect Aikyam to fundamentally change the way JSW works with its large clients, while ensuring that our relationships continue to get stronger through a single Group interface, bolstered by strong internal collaboration. In the near future we plan to offer other group products such as paints, construction chemicals, RMC and many others to our large institutional customers through the Aikyam interface.” The Aikyam integration is expected to unlock opportunities for the Steel and Cement businesses of JSW Group across key States of Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Telangana & Andhra Pradesh. It is expected to unlock new demand for JSW Steel and JSW Cement as well as other group companies going forward. The Group has already onboarded MMRDA, MHADA, MCGM, DMRC, Afcons Infra, BG Shirke, CapaciteInfraprojects, DilipBuildcon, ITD Cementation, J Kumar Infra, JMC Projects, L&T, L&W, Navayuga Engineering, NCC, Rajapushpa Realty, Shapoorji Pallonji & SNC during the pilot run of the integrated service.

Baxi & Company ARCELORMITTAL NIPPON STEEL CHARTS The two phases of expansion at Hazira, Gujarat, along with OUT 5-MILLON-TONNE downstream, are expected to cost EXPANSION IN 3 YEARS Rs 50,000 crore ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel India’s play in the steel market is set to get bigger. The company is busy making plans that would increase its capacity by five million tonnes in the next three years while laying building blocks for the phase after. Dilip Oommen chief executive officer ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel India (AM/NS India), said the groundbreaking for the expansion to 14 million tonnes was expected this year. “In the next phase, we will take it up to 18 million tonnes,” he added. The two phases of expansion at Hazira, Gujarat, along with downstream, are expected to cost about Rs 50,000 crore. Hazira has a capacity of about 9 million tonnes. For the expansion at Hazira from 9 to 14 million tonnes, AM/NS India has land. Acquisition of land for the second phase is underway. “We have made very good progress with the Gujarat government,” said Oommen. However, he pointed out that logistics would have to be in place for the second phase. That would entail enhancing port facilities, getting the railway line into the plant and improving road logistics. “Lot of work has already started,” he said. The first phase would be completed in three years. For the second phase, AM/NS India has an option of taking up Hazira or starting construction of a new plant in Odisha. “We will have to decide appropriately. There are many options and we will have to select the right option,” explained Oommen. In March, AM/NS India had signed an MoU for a 12-million tonne integrated steel plant at an investment of Rs 50,000 crore, in the presence of ArcelorMittal executive chairman Lakshmi Mittal and Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik. Oommen said, “In Odisha, we are in active discussions with the government for setting up a 12 million tonne plant. We have specialists from all streams working on this right now and land acquisition process is on.” Even as the major growth plans are being charted, an investment of Rs 14,500 crore is underway at Hazira and Odisha. Growth plans would also entail inorganic opportunities. AM/NS India has submitted an expression of interest for Neelachal Ispat Nigam Ltd (NINL), which is being privatized by the government. “We are open to all opportunities that may come up in the future. We are very Page 9 Steel Update - June 2021 J. M. Baxi & Company closely studying opportunities and we will participate,” said Oommen. Clearly, the joint venture of world’s leading steel companies – ArcelorMittal and Nippon Steel – is betting big on India. The companies jointly acquired Essar Steel under the insolvency code for Rs 42,000 crore in 2019. Last week, AM Mining India’s resolution plan for Uttam Galva Steels – a downstream unit – was approved by the committee of creditors and the resolution plan has been filed with the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT). Oommen said that there could be mothballed assets in the plant that need to be put back on line. “The plant has done well, but there is scope for improvement and potential for capacity to go up,” he explained. The last one year has worked out well for steel companies as demand improved and prices surged. All major domestic steel producers are restarting expansion plans and by FY24, 29 million tonnes of additional capacity is expected to go onstream, excluding AM/NS India’s expansion. Oommen, however, reminded that steel was a cyclical industry.

It is expected that with improved ease of doing business in India, including the reform of labor laws, rationalization of land acquisition, and faster provision of transport and connectivity infrastructure, both foreign and domestic investment will pick up in manufacturing. The hope is that the rate of growth of manufacturing will accelerate and the share of manufacturing in GDP, which has been stagnant at about 15 per cent for the last three decades, will increase to 25 per cent.

  • 1 REPORT INTRODUCTORY Steel Is Key to the Development of Any
    REPORT INTRODUCTORY Steel is key to the development of any country and is considered to be the mainstay of the human civilization. The level of per capita consumption of steel is treated as economic indicator of a country. All major industrial economies are characterized by the existence of a strong steel industry and the growth of many of these economies has been largely shaped by the strength of their steel industries in this initial stages of development. India has been one of the major producers of steel in the world. Prior to the economic reforms of the early 1990s, the Steel Industry of India was regulated and controlled by the Government Policies. After liberalization the Indian Steel Industry evolved significantly to conform to international standards. The India Steel Industry is expected to play a significant role in India‟s economic development in the years to come. Availability of iron ore in the country and well furnished facilities for steel productions are the major aspects which will play a major role in the growth of the steel industry in India. The domestic steel industry has a tremendous growth potential and likely to register significant growth in the coming years in view of the rising demand of steel in infrastructure and realty sectors. However, one of the major initiatives that need to be taken is to focus on increasing consumption of steel in the rural areas. In order to realize the growth potential in the steel sector, it is imperative that the steel industry remain competitive. The availability of critical inputs such as iron ore and coke is equally important for sustainable growth of the industry.

KAVITA CHAVALI*; MS. KARTHIKA.S** *Associate Professor, Alliance University, Bangalore – 562106. **Research Associate, Alliance University, Bangalore – 562106. ABSTRACT The paper is an empirical study to understand the financial soundness of steel industry in India. For this purpose twenty large and medium steel units which are listed are taken. A sample period of 2001 - 2010 was selected for the study. The financial performance of the Steel industry was monitored and measured by using Altman’s Z-score model which was extensively used by practitioners and researchers in the past. This study analyses the possibility of business failure with reasonable accuracy by using the z-score model. The research findings are that the steel industry is in good financial performance inspite of the impact of sluggish demand and global economic slowdown with an exception of two companies in the study period. KEYWORDS: Steel Industry, Z score, Bankruptcy, Financial Soundness. ______________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Companies exist for making profits and to create value to the share holder. It is very important for bankers, researchers, regulatory agencies to predict the bankruptcy to lessen the impact of it. If a company goes bankrupt / fail the shareholders of the company and also the public at large get affected. The impact is much more if it is a manufacturing industry like Steel. “Failure” is defined as the inability of a firm to pay its financial obligations as they mature (Beaver, 1966).

  • The Business Today: the Bargain Hunters Corporate Czars Are Looking to Acquire Stressed Assets of India's Dozen Big Defaulters
    The Business Today: The Bargain Hunters Corporate czars are looking to acquire stressed assets of India's dozen big defaulters. A look at what that means for industry and banks. Nevin John New Delhi Print Edition: December 31, 2017 On 17 November, a 27-member team from London-based ArcelorMittal drove into Essar Steel's 10 million tonne (MT) steel manufacturing complex at Hazira in Gujarat. The team, led by Aditya Mittal, 41, son of steel baron Lakshmi Mittal and CFO of the world's largest steelmaker, had come for a first round of due diligence. Mittal asked for safety gear-yellow hard hats and steel toe leather boots-to walk through the plant. Mittal, who looks much younger than his years, took a close look at how steel was being made and discussed processes that Essar follows. It was a first step towards identifying and verifying records and processes at Essar Steel. For Essar Steel employees, Mittal and team were just one group of visitors to question them and check out the plant. Around the time of the ArcelorMittal visit, the Hazira complex hosted teams from Tata Steel and Japan's Nippon Steel. The Nippon team came with due diligence experts and M&A specialists. The race to acquire assets of the 12 big defaulters referred to the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) by their lenders, after being nudged by the Reserve Bank of India, or RBI, is gathering pace. It is raising hopes that banks which have lent money to these companies will not have to completely write off their investments and that at least a part of India's depressing `8 lakh crore non-performing assets, or NPA, story will be redeemed.

Land is not a commodity, which can be bought and sold at will in a market driven by speculative finance, which allows corporate capital to dispossess small peasants of their land and become the new zamindars (landlords) 3. Land must belong to those who till it, tend it and nurse it and for whom it is a source of sustenance. And not to those for whom it is a means of accumulating wealth and speculative gain or object of luxury resort and idle pastime. 4. Ensuring Livelihood Security and Food Security must receive over-riding priority in determining land use pattern. Diversion and destruction of fertile agricultural land for industry, housing or entertainment of the affluent must be banned.
