Background

The plant was set up in 1989 as Vikram Ispat by Aditya Birla Group with a design capacity of 750 ttpa.[1] Welspun acquired the plant in 2009 and renamed it as Welspun Maxsteel.[2] JSW Steel acquired the plant in 2014 for INR 1,000 crores.[3][4][5] A proposal to set up and integrated steel plant of capacity 1.5 mtpa was modified in 2015 due to shortage of natural gas. The new proposal involved setting up a 3 mtpa steel plant using Corex technology and EAF at a cost of INR 12,000 crores.[6][7] The expansion project seems to have been dropped as there have been no updates on it since 2015 and it does not appear in JSW steels overall expansion plans.[8]
