Abstract

The Credit for pioneering the growth of a fully integrated and well-planned iron and steel industry in India undoub-tedly goes to the house of Tata, which started from a humble beginning and grew to a mighty iron and steel complex.The Government of India has further, under the tempo of five year plans, fully realized the importance of well-knit heavy iron and steel bases to feed the chain reaction.growth of secondary and processing engineering industries, in turn forming the backbone of consumer indus-tries catering to the requirements of diverse products essential in times both of war and peace. Even though the iron and steel industry is highly capital intensive, it cannot be left to the vagaries of international trade agreements and barter arrangements to meet iron and steel requirements for almost unlimited applications in industry.
