MUMBAI, December, 2019 JSW Steel, India’s leading steel company & flagship business of US$ 14 billion JSW Group, during the months of October & November supplied more than 30,000 metric tonnes high quality JSW Neosteel TMT Rebars towards construction of Metro projects in various Indian cities. This takes the company’s overall supplies of JSW Neosteel TMT Rebars for metro construction projects to more than 85,000 metric tonnes so far in this fiscal. JSW Steel has been supplying its Neosteel TMT Rebars to Metro Rail projects across India since inception of the Metro Rail projects. In current financial year, the company expects to increase its supplies to the Metro Rail projects to about 150,000 metric tonnes as compared to its supplies averaging 100,000 metric tonnes per year over last few years.
The company is supplying to Metro Rail projects in Mumbai, Nagpur, Pune, Bangalore, Chennai, Kolkata, Indore, Bhopal, Lucknow & Ahmedabad. The ongoing supplies as well as those already completed during the current fiscal will boost JSW Steel’s supplies to Metro rail projects by more than Rs 600 crores following successful completion of these deliveries. The company bagged these Metro Rail orders through key EPC Partners with ongoing supply arrangements. The Metro Rail projects in these cities are expected to cumulatively add more than over 760  kilometers urban rail transit lines to India’s fast expanding metro  network.
