Background

Orissa Metaliks Pvt Ltd, formerly known as MSP Metallics Ltd was incorporated on 29 November, 1996 in the name of Adhunik Industries Pvt Ltd., which was changed to MSP Metallics Ltd on 28 December 2001.[1] When it was commissioned, the plant had a capacity of 250 thousand tonnes per annum (ttpa) direct reduced iron plant, 200 ttpa Steel melt shop, and 37MW Captive power plant.[2] On 27 November, 2004 MSP Metallics Ltd signed an MoU with Odisha state government to set up a 260 ttpa integrated steel plant and 25 MW captive power plant at Markuta.[3]

In 2020, the state-owned Central Bank of India had approached the National Company Law Tribunal after the then MSP Metallics failed to repay its dues. In July 2022, a dedicated bankruptcy court approved a revival plan submitted by Orissa Metaliks (OMPL) for the integrated steel manufacturer MSP Metallics by paying about INR 800 crores.[4]

In September 2023, Odisha State government 9 projects during the 32nd High-Level Clearance Authority (HLCA) meeting which included the expansion of Orissa Metaliks Markuta steel plant. The plant is set to expand its capacity by setting up a 1390 ttpa steel plant, 251 MW CPP, and Railway Siding in Marakuta, Jharsuguda, with a total investment of INR 1,500 Crores, generating employment for 4,000 individuals.[5][6][7] As of January 2025, there has been no updates on the expansion project.

Accident

Two contractual workers died and six others sustained injuries when a large metal plate fell on them at the blast furnace of Orissa Metaliks Pvt Ltd (OMPL) plant in Marakuta-Budhipadar on 17 September 2024.[8]
