They’re ideal where strength and weather resistance matter most.
Serving More Industries, Better

A Proud Milestone for Jindal Steel
Chairman Naveen Jindal said,
“The commissioning of our first galvanising line at Angul is a proud moment. We’re committed to offering top-quality steel to meet growing industry needs.”
What’s Next?
Jindal Steel is not stopping here. The company plans to add 6 MTPA more crude steel capacity at Angul by the end of 2025. This will take the plant’s total capacity to 12 MTPA, making it one of the biggest steel plants in India.
Jindal Steel is shaping India’s steel future with bold moves and strong vision. With CGL 1 live, the Angul complex is now a key force in India’s growing steel story.
