The Khopoli plant is very strategically located, servicing the key high growing markets of Maharashtra, South Gujarat, North Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh. These units offer an increased range of diverse and value added products (eg Pre-Galvanized Tubes) and enable the Company to bring down the logistics cost, positively impacting realizations and profitability.

The company proposes to further add a third line of production of additional 60,000 MT by Q1FY18, taking the total capacity to 1,32,000 MT.
