Gallantt Ispat has entered into an agreement with East Coast Railway, Bhubaneshwar, Odisha to buy and own Railway Wagons to get rid of wagons shortfall with Indian Railways. Unavailability of rakes (a collection of wagons pulled by an engine) by Indian Railway is a major concern and pet peeve of the Company. Rakes are provided by the Indian Railway on priority by payment of 15% premium on freight charges and even then, availability of railway rakes is very difficult. Availability of railway rakes is more difficult through placing normal indent nowadays and recent past. Hence, company is in the process of acquiring two railway rakes under the General-Purpose Wagon Investment Scheme (GPWIS) of Railway Board.
Thus, Indian Railways offer 10% rebate on railway freight rate for 15 years under the GPWI Scheme. As such, altogether company would be able to save 25% on the freight cost (10% rebate plus 15% on premium indent). The company has decided about owning railway rakes to boost up loading of Iron ore and coal (primary raw materials of the Company) from origin (port, mining area etc.) to its manufacturing facilities. Owning two railway rakes would cost the Company around Rs 55 crore but having own rakes would assure that raw materials are dispatched timely, hassle free and cost effectively.
Gallantt Ispat manufactures Sponge Iron, Mild Steel Billets, Re-Rolled products (TMT bars) and a Modern Roller Flour.
