Tata Steel Limited has inaugurated Phase Two of its Kalinganagar steel plant in Odisha, increasing its crude steel capacity from three million tonnes to eight million tonnes per annum. The expansion involved an investment of Rs 270 billion, reinforcing Odisha as Tata Steel’s largest investment destination.

Unveiled by the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Odisha, the plant now features India’s largest blast furnace with a volume of 5,870 cubic metres, equipped with four top combustion stoves and two preheating stoves for optimal fuel use. The facility also includes a Pellet Plant, Coke Plant, and Cold Rolling Mill, integrating advanced and sustainable technologies.

This modernised unit supports key sectors such as automotive, defence, infrastructure, and energy, aligning with India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India) vision. The Harmony between state leadership, local communities, and Tata Steel underscores the company’s commitment to inclusive, technology-driven growth.

With this milestone, Tata Steel reaffirms its goal to be a leader in sustainable and digital steelmaking, strengthening its footprint in India’s industrial ecosystem.
