Rashtriya Ispat Nigam (RINL) has entered into a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Jindal Steel and Power (JSPL) for ensuring the needed working capital support or raw material requirement to start its third blast furnace (BF-3). The blast furnace BF-3 has been closed since January 2021. The re-start of the BF-3 is planned for December 30, 2023 at a capacity of 2 lakh tonnes of hot metal per month.
Under the arrangement, JSPL will ensure the availability of funds in the form of advance working capital or raw materials required for consistent operation of BF-3 valuing in the range of Rs 800-900 crore. RINL will supply about 90,000 tonnes of cast blooms every month to JSPL in return. This initiative will result in a monthly increase in sales turnover of around Rs 500 crore per month and is likely to reduce losses by about 50-100 crores per month.
Jindal Steel & Power is one of India’s fastest growing and largest integrated steel manufacturers, significantly present in Steel, Power Generation and Infrastructure segments and catering to a large part of India's domestic energy and infrastructure requirement.
