Profile Tata Steel is India's largest integrated private sector steel company. Established in 1907, its steel plant at Jamshedpur produces four million tonnes of hot and cold rolled flat and long products.
The company is backward integrated with owned iron ore mines and collieries. With its competitive advantage in raw materials, efficient operations and the benefits of a recently-completed $2.3 billion programme of modernisation, Tata Steel is among the lowest cost steel producers in the world.
The steel major has won the Prime Minister's Trophy four times. This award is instituted by the Indian ministry of steel and awarded to the country's best integrated steel plant. In 2000, it became the first Tata company to win the JRD Tata QV award, given to the company with 'world class' operations under the Group's Tata Business Excellence Model.
Areas of business Apart from the main steel division, Tata Steel's operations are grouped under strategic profit centres like tubes, growth shop (for its steel plant and material handling equipment), bearings, ferro alloys and minerals, rings, agrico and wires.
Tata Steel's products include hot and cold rolled coils and sheets, tubes, wire rods, construction bars, structurals, forging quality steel, rings and bearings.

Jaspal Sing : An ace shooter shoots and gets gold medal, govt gives 1cr, another shooter dies while shooting terrorist, govt gives 5 lakh.
Jaspal Sing : these Jawans lay down their lives to protect every Indian and these cricketers get paid even if they lose a match, we worship these cricketers and forget the martyrdom of these brave Jawans.
Jaspal Sing : What a shame and disgrace to every citizen of India that the elite NSG Force was transported into ordinary BEST buses, whereas our cricketers are transported into state of the art luxury buses.
Jaspal Sing : a few thoughts to share with you and citizen of Jamshedpur
Rajesh Pras :
Rajesh Pras : Lets not blame the system if we stop asking favours then they cannot command favours.
Rajesh Pras : So atleast we can create a parallel community of like minded people who atleat meet atleast on saturday evening and/or sunday without any political affiliation and instead waiting for some other will lead,let's do it.We can give the system a WAKE UP CALLS and we ourselves will have to learn and practice not to get tempted to get our things done at the cost of others...which of course requires the path of corruption.
Rajesh Pras : Dear Jaspal I do agree that ballot is very powerful tool but if you have the option of candidate is limited and unless we have negative voting rightb to discard the candidates we will have only the worst option to select and ofcourse who is less......
Jaspal Sing : Why blame our politicians? Let us blame ourselves for the situation we find ourselves in.
If we want this state of affairs to change, then that change has to first happen to ourselves; that change has to first happen within ourselves.
The politician understands only one language - that of the ballot. He knows who will vote and who will not.
