Market Growth Factors

Robust Infrastructure Development and Urbanization are primary growth drivers for the India hot rolled and cold rolled steel market. The government’s focus on upgrading roads, bridges, railways, airports, and urban infrastructure under initiatives like the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP), which involves investment plans exceeding INR 111 lakh crore (approximately USD 1.5 trillion) between 2020 and 2025, significantly drives steel demand. Urbanization trends leading to increased residential and commercial construction also elevate the need for high-quality HR and CR steel products. The Smart Cities Mission, aiming to develop 100 smart cities, further stimulates demand for sustainable and disaster-resistant steel structures, collectively creating a conducive environment for market expansion.

Government Policies and Initiatives Supporting the Steel Industry have been instrumental in shaping the market’s growth trajectory. The National Steel Policy (NSP) 2017 aims to establish India as a globally competitive steel producer, targeting 300 million tons of steel-making capacity by 2030-31. It emphasizes new-age technologies and improved domestic consumption. Additionally, the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme promotes local manufacturing of specialty and value-added steel products by providing financial incentives based on incremental sales and production. This scheme anticipates enhancing production capacity by 25 million tons and reducing import reliance, thus fostering domestic market strength.

Technological Advancements and Strategic Investments fuel the market growth by enhancing production capabilities and product quality. For instance, ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel India has invested close to INR 1,000 crore to produce Magnelis, a zinc-aluminium-magnesium alloy-coated flat carbon steel used in solar energy and infrastructure sectors, reducing dependence on imports and promoting advanced steel availability domestically. Furthermore, major investments like the USD 7.73 billion joint venture between JSW Steel and POSCO for a steel plant in Odisha augment production capacity, ensuring reliable and local supply. Additionally, regulatory actions such as the anti-dumping probe on hot-rolled flat steel imports from Vietnam safeguard local producers and promote a stable competitive market.
