Background

In May 2022, Tata Steel announced its plan to set up its first electric arc furnace (EAF) facility in north India's Punjab state. The proposed 750 ttpa plant will be supported by the company's 500,000 t/yr steel recycling plant at Rohtak, Haryana that was commissioned in 2020.[1] A land next to Hi-Tech Valley Industrial Park in Ludhiana, Punjab was allotted for the plant in August 2022.[2] According to the company's 2022-23 annual report, the plant is under construction.[3] The project is expected to be commissioned by March 2025.[4]
