JTL Industries Bags Order under Jal Jeevan Mission

07 Feb 2025 CW Team

Launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on August 15, 2019, JJM has transformed rural water access, increasing tap water coverage from 3.23 crore (17 per cent) households at launch to 15.44 crore (79.74 per cent) as of February 1, 2025. The government has now extended JJM until 2028 with an enhanced outlay, as the final 20 per cent coverage requires significant infrastructure investments, advanced execution strategies, and greater last-mile connectivity efforts. The Jal Shakti Ministry estimates an additional Rs 4000 billion (bn) will be required to complete the mission, with Rs 670 bn allocated for FY 2025-26 alone.

Given these developments, JTL Industries, as a key supplier in JJM, stands to benefit significantly. The company has a strong track record in delivering high-quality GI pipes for water infrastructure projects and is well-positioned to capture additional opportunities arising from the government’s renewed focus on quality, sustainability, and long-term water security.

Commenting on the above development, the management of the Company said, “We are pleased to announce this significant order from the PHE Department, Jammu, under the Jal Jeevan Mission. The extension of JJM presents significant opportunities, and with our established track record as a trusted supplier to the government, JTL is well-positioned to support its next phase. Our proven ability to meet diverse requirements with high-quality GI pipes, backed by our added manufacturing capacity, and our successful history in government projects, ensures we are ready to contribute to large-scale infrastructure initiatives moving forward. As investments in water infrastructure rise, we see significant opportunities to create long-term stakeholder value, enhancing our visibility in the sector and further solidifying our commitment to India’s water security and rural development.”

JTL Industries has bagged a significant order to supply 3,000 metric tonne of Galvanized Iron (GI) pipes of assorted sizes. The order, valued at Rs 240 million, has been placed by the Public Health Engineering (PHE) Department, Jammu, as part of the Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM).
