This year, we are planning to produce 6 MT of steel in India and more than 1.5 MT in Oman,” said Jindal. In October, with the commissioning of the basic oxygen furnace, we will be inching closer to reach the break-even for the Angul facility. However, the production front will be more vibrant from July this year. From July itself, we will start doing much better and will start producing two lakh tonne per month at Angul.”
