Company Profile
Tata Sponge Iron (TSIL) was incorporated in 1982 as joint venture between Tata Steel
and the Industrial Promotion and Investment Corporation of Orissa (IPICOL). Later in
1991, Tata Steel acquired IPICOL’s stake in joint venture. TSIL is associate company
of Tata Steel. The company also operates a modern R&D facility that is set up along
with a chemical laboratory to conduct the monitoring process. This R& D facility
introduced Tisco Direct Reduction (TDR) – an innovative technology for making sponge
iron. TSIL's manufacturing facilities have been accredited with ISO-9002 and ISO
14000 certifications for its quality management. Tata Sponge Iron operates two captive
power plants that produce a total capacity of 26 MW of power. The company is
engaged in business of manufacturing high-grade sponge iron that is consistent in
3
quality. The company has an annual manufacturing capacity of 390,000 tonnes of
sponge iron from its three kilns. Its production plant is situated at Bilaipada in Orissa.

Sponge Iron:
India is the world's largest producer of sponge iron, most of which is produced
primarily through the coal based method of production. Growth in the sponge iron
production can be attributed largely to the popularity of secondary steelmaking route,
which has shown a phenomenal growth in India. The proportion of crude steel
produced by the secondary steel sector rose from 26 mMT(37%) in 1999-2k to 54
mMT(59%) in 2007-08. This has been mainly due to the lower investment cost of the
EAF as compared with the integrated blast furnace--oxygen converter route and also
because of its greater flexibility of product mix.
Power generation:
In order to cater to rapid industrialization, the demand for electrical energy is on the
rise. Conforming to stringent environmental norms, energy through waste heat
recovery has emerged as one of the better alternatives to address this need. The
4
Ministry of Environment & Forest has made it compulsory for the DRI plants to
generate captive power by using kiln waste heat in order to emphasise on generating
power through this non conventional way.Tata Sponge’s first power plant using waste
heat was commissioned in 2001. Later, it added another power plant in 2006 to
increase its overall power producing capacity to 26 MW
TDR Technology:
Steel production through the conventional blast furnace route requires coking coal in
abundance, which is a limited resource in our country and is also becoming scarce
world over. Hence, a new technology -TISCO Direct Reduction (TDR) technology was
evolved that helped in the reduction of iron ore by using abundantly available non-
coking coal.
SWOT Analysis:
Strengths
• Rich mineral resources like iron ore, coal and other raw material for iron and steel
• Strong Management
Weakness
5
Opportunities
• The capital required for setting up integrated steel plants is large, the growth in
demand of steel during the year was met generally by secondary steel sector or
through import of steel.
• Slowing down of growth in steel industry, integrated steel plants still fall short in
capacity to meet full demand of steel in India. Secondary steel sector will continue
to play significant role in steel supply in the country.
• The allotment of coal block to the company will in future ensure smooth and
consistent supply of coal, both in terms of quantity and quality.
Threats
• The company does not have its own iron ore mines and shall meet only part of its
coal requirement in future from its colliery.

Industry Overview
The steel industry in India has been moving from strength to strength and according
to the Annual Report 2009-10 by the Ministry of Steel, India has emerged as the fifth
largest producer of steel in the world and is likely to become the second largest
producer of crude steel by 2015-16.
Recently, Steel Minister, Mr Virbhadra Singh said that India will become the world's
second-largest steel producer by 2012, more than doubling its capacity to 124 million
tonnes (MT) as part of the push being given to assist overall infrastructure
development.
Production
Steel production rose 4.2 per cent to reach 60 MT in 2009-2010, according to the
Ministry of Steel.
12
The National Steel Policy 2005 had projected an annual steel consumption growth of 7
per cent based on GDP growth rate of 7-7.5 per cent and production of 110 MT of
crude steel by 2019-2020. Nonetheless, with the current rate of ongoing greenfield and
brownfield projects, the Ministry of Steel has projected that these growth trends are
likely to be exceeded and it is envisaged that in the next five years demand will grow at
higher annual average growth rate of over 10 per cent as compared to around 7 per
cent growth achieved between 1991-92 and 2005-06.
Moreover, according to the ministry, the crude steel production capacity in the country
by 2011-12 will be nearly 124 MT.
According to the Annual Report 2009-10 by the Ministry of Steel, domestic crude steel
production grew at a compounded annual growth rate of 8.6 per cent during 2004-05
and 2008-09.
Consumption
India's steel consumption rose 8 per cent in the year ended March 2010, over the
same period a year ago on account of improved demand from sectors like automobile,
infrastructure and housing. The country’s steel consumption increased to 56.3 MT in
the 12 months to March 2010 from 52.3 MT in the previous year, as per the Ministry
of Steel.
Investments
The domestic steel sector has attracted a staggering investment of about US$ 238
billion, according to the Minister of State for Steel, Mr A. Sai Prathap.
13
This consists of nearly 222 MoUs signed between the investors and various state
governments mostly in the states of Orissa, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and West
Bengal.
• Tata Steel has entered into a joint venture with Japan’s Nippon Steel for
production and sales of automotive cold-rolled flat products at Jamshedpur.
The JV is expected to invest US$ 400 million to set up an automobile venture in
India.
• Steel major, JSW Steel has earmarked a capex of US$ 1.6 billion for 2010-11
and plans to increase capacity of its Bellary plant in Karnataka from 7 MT to 10
MT by end of 2010-11.
Government Initiative
As per the Press Information Bureau, during 2009, the government took a number of
fiscal and administrative steps to contain steel prices. Central value added tax
(CENVAT) on steel items was reduced from 14 per cent to 10 per cent with effect from
February 2009.
Moreover, in the Union Budget 2010-11, the government has allocated US$ 37.4
billion to the infrastructure sector and has increased the allocation for road transport
by 13 per cent to US$ 4.3 billion which will further promote the steel industry.
