India’s largest Blast furnace at Angul continue to produce more than 10000 MT/day of hot metal and World only SynGas based DRI Plant is running well, which will lead to creating new records in future”

“Oman has also shown an incredible performance. The EAF in Oman has produced 2,02,110 tonnes of steel in one month, which is again a record for the plant of its kind. We will aim to do much more in this new financial year.” Mr. Sharma further added.
