Create self-sufficiency in steel production by providing policy support &amp; guidance to private manufacturers, MSME steel producers, CPSEs<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">2. Encourage adequate capacity additions<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">3. Development of globally competitive steel manufacturing capabilities<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">4.Cost-efficient production<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">5. Domestic availability of iron ore, coking coal &amp; natural gas<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">6. Facilitating foreign investment<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">7. Asset acquisitions of raw materials<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">8. Enhancing the domestic steel demand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The policy projects crude steel capacity of 300 million tonnes (MT), production of 255 MT and a robust finished steel per capita consumption of 158 kg by 2030 &#8211; 31, as against the current consumption of 61 kg. The policy also envisages to domestically meet the entire demand of high grade automotive steel, electrical steel, special steels and alloys for strategic applications and increase domestic availability of washed coking coal so as to reduce import dependence on coking coal from about 85% to around 65% by 2030-31.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Some highlights of New Steel Policy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">1. The Indian steel sector has grown rapidly over the past few years and presently it is the third largest steel producer globally, contributing to about 2% of the country&#8217;s GDP.\u00a0 India has also crossed 100 MT mark for production for sale in 2016-17.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">2. The New Steel Policy, 2017 aspires to achieve 300 MT of steel-making capacity by 2030. This would translate into additional investment of Rs. 10 lakh Crore by 2030-31.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">3. The Policy seeks to increase consumption of steel and major segments are infrastructure, automobiles and housing. New Steel Policy seeks to increase per capita steel consumption to the level of 160 kg by 2030 from existing level of around 60 kg.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">4. Potential of MSME steel sector has been recognised. Policy stipulates that adoption of energy efficient technologies in the MSME steel sector will be encouraged to improve the overall productivity &amp; reduce energy intensity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">5. Steel Ministry will facilitate R&amp;D in the sector through the establishment of Steel Research and Technology Mission of India (SRTMI). The initiative is aimed to spearhead R&amp;D of national importance in iron steel sector utilizing tripartite synergy amongst industry, national R&amp;D laboratories and academic institutes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">6. Ministry through policy measures will ensure availability of raw materials like Iron ore, Coking coal and non-coking coal, Natural gas etc.\u00a0 at competitive rates.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">7. With the roll out of the National Steel Policy-2017, it is envisaged that the industry will be steered in creating an environment for promoting domestic steel and thereby ensuring a scenario where production meets the anticipated pace of growth in consumption, through a technologically advanced and globally competitive steel industry. This will be facilitated by Ministry of Steel, in coordination with relevant Ministries, as may be required.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Background:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Steel is one of the most important products in the modern world and forms the backbone to any industrial economy. India being one of the fastest growing economies in the world, and steel finding its extensive application right from construction, infrastructure, power, aerospace and industrial machinery to consumer products, the sector is of strategic importance to the country. The Indian steel sector has grown exponentially over the past few years to be the third largest producer of steel globally, contributing to about 2% of the country&#8217;s GDP and employing about 5 lakh people directly and about 20 lakh people indirectly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Untapped potential with a strong policy support becomes the ideal platform for growth. Owing to the strategic importance of the sector along with the need to have a robust and restructured policy in present scenario, the new NSP, 2017 became imminent. Though, National Steel Policy 2005 (NSP 2005) sought to indicate ways and means of consolidating the gains flowing out of the then economic order and charted out a road map for sustained and efficient growth of the Indian steel industry, it required adaptation in view of the recent developments unfolding in India and also worldwide, both on the demand and supply sides of the steel market.<\/p>\n<p
