Jindal (India) Limited, a key subsidiary of the prestigious BC Jindal Group and one of India’s leading manufacturers of downstream steel products, has announced its strategic entry into the steel section pipes and tubes segment. The company is investing ₹100 crore in its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in West Bengal to support this expansion.
The move marks a significant milestone for Jindal (India) Limited, as it aims to ramp up its monthly production capacity to 5,000 metric tonnes (MT) of section pipes and tubes. This initiative is projected to generate a sales revenue of ₹315 crore in the financial year 2025–26 (FY26).
“Our venture into the section steel pipes and tubes segment aligns with the Government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative and reiterates our commitment to industrial growth. While catering to the high demand for this product segment, particularly in the eastern region of the country, Jindal (India) Limited also aims to significantly bolster its exports through this expansion,” said a company spokesperson.
The newly introduced product line will serve multiple high-demand sectors including infrastructure, agriculture, railways, warehousing, and residential housing. The company sees this as an opportunity to not only meet domestic demand but also expand its export footprint.
The steel section pipes and tubes segment is currently experiencing robust growth in both demand and production volumes. With this timely entry, Jindal (India) Limited aims to capture a substantial market share, leveraging its deep-rooted presence in eastern India and expanding further into southern, northern, and western regions.
Historically, the eastern region has driven a major share of the company’s revenue, followed by South India. However, Jindal (India) Limited is now accelerating its pan-India strategy. Currently, North and West India contribute around 15% of its revenues, a figure the company aims to double to 30% in the near future by capitalizing on growing infrastructure development and industrial projects.
Jindal (India) Limited operates two advanced manufacturing facilities in Howrah, West Bengal. These units are equipped with cutting-edge technologies including colour coating, galvanizing, and galvalume processes. The company’s robust product portfolio spans three major verticals: sheets, pipes, and aluminium foil. It is also the force behind well-established brands such as Jindal Sabrang and Jindal NeuColour+, with a dominant presence in the colour-coated sheets market in Eastern India and a growing national footprint.
At present, 70% of the company’s output comprises coated flat steel products, which will continue to be a core focus area, even as it expands into new segments.
Founded in 1952, Jindal (India) Limited is a key part of the ₹18,000 crore BC Jindal Group, a diversified Indian conglomerate engaged in businesses ranging from packaging films and energy to steel manufacturing.
