In view of further expansion programmed in the same field, the company set up a state-of-the-art plant for manufacturing wider width Cold Rolled Strips and Galvanized Plain/Corrugated Sheets in 1998 at Jangalpur in the district of Howrah to meet the Domestic and International demand with the installed capacities was 40000 MTPA. Gradually, their capacity was increased up to 350000 MTPA. Under the said expansion plan, the Company installed 2 nos of modern 6 HI C.R. Mill and 2 nos of Galvanizing line of higher standards.
