Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steel is the foundational material of modern civilization and constitutes the core of industry, and yet, it is overproduced across the world. This supply glut is reducing margins and turning steel into a sunset industry. Steel consumes as much as four times the amount of raw materials as its produced volume, and the sheer bulk of the steel makes it costly to transport. Because of this, countries prefer to make their own rather than to source it across land and sea. The Indian steel industry has grown from being the tenth largest steel producer in the world in 1991 to emerging as the second largest, after China. This book aims to reveal, through data and the use of simple economic concepts, the mistakes that abound in the discourses surrounding the steel industry. Its main objective is to dispel the many myths that are perpetuated by policy makers and the industry in order to benefit a small coterie of large firms, and discusses how through such favours the Indian steel industry is set to lose out in terms of margins, products and growth in technology. It covers the unique role of the Indian state in the development of the broad base of steel production, and observes the change in the direction in policy, which reverses the economic equality of the past and promotes collusion among oligopolies leading to overexpansion in capacities. Economics of the Indian Steel Industry will be of interest to students of industrial economics and corporate strategy, as well as financial managers and policy makers.

Book excerpt: In this preface, we emphasize the pivotal role of the Indian steel industry in driving India's economic growth. We highlight steel as an essential product for the development of any modern economy, often considered the backbone of human civilization. The per capita steel consumption serves as a crucial indicator of a country's socioeconomic development and living standards. India, a key player on the global steel map, has continually advanced its steel sector. It has established state-of-the-art steel mills, continuously modernized older plants, enhanced energy efficiency, and integrated with global raw material sources. Strong linkages between large, technologically complex industries and steel products exist, contributing to both material flow and income generation. The survival of robust steel industries characterizes major industrial economies in India, significantly shaping their early progress. The liberalization of the industrial sector marked a turning point for the Indian steel industry, which swiftly adopted the latest technologies, including the installation of new Greenfield plants. This led to increased output and higher positioning within the value chain, resulting in a rise in exports and greater integration with the global economy. However, this expansion also led to regional diffusion, affecting domestic supply, particularly in the western region. Considering India's status as a developing nation, the steel industry's significance cannot be overstated. The demand for steel is extensive, from constructing bridges and railways to manufacturing rolling stock, ships, vessels, and various machinery. Critical sectors like railway locomotive production, shipbuilding, and light machine construction depend on a stable steel supply. Consequently, steel consumption remains a key indicator of our country's economic development. In traditional sectors, steel holds a monopoly, while specialized steels find applications in engineering industries such as power generation, petrochemicals, and fertilizers due to increased production.

Download or read book A Profile of the Steel Industry written by Peter Warrian and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steel companies were at the birth of the modern business corporation. The first billion dollar corporation ever formed was U.S. Steel in 1901. By the mid-twentieth century the steel mill and the automobile plant were the two pillars upon which the twentieth century industrial economy rested. Given the scale of capital and operations, vertical integration was seen to be pivotal, from the raw materials of iron ore and coal on one end of the supply chain to the myriad of finished products on the other. By the end of the twentieth century, however, things had dramatically changed. Take a look inside for a brilliant and concise history of the steel industry. The author has put together a true presentation of the economics of the industry, with an overview of how the industry operates and the environment in which it operates. This book includes a detailed discussion of the regulation of the industry; a documentation of the reasons why a rejuvenated steel industry will be critical to the economic health of the United States and Canada; and a rationale for the reemergence of the steel industry in particular, and manufacturing in general, as a vital force in the North American economy of the new millennium. It was widely perceived that the United States was moving from an industrial age into an information age, driven by high technology. That process is now being reversed. The steel industry has continuously been forced to remake itself, and this book describes those developments and dynamics.
