Background
Shakambhari Ispat & Power Limited (SIPL) was incorporated in 2001 as Ma Chhinnamastika Steel & Power Pvt. Ltd.[1] The plant was shut down in August 2010 as it was making loss.[2] Later in December 2010, the company was acquired by Shakambhari Group and the name of the company was changed to Shakambhari Ispat & Power Limited.[1] The company has proposed to expand its capacity from 523.95 ttpa to 787.5 ttpa.[3] The environmental clearance for the expansion was submitted on 24 March 2023, and granted on 19 July 2023.[4] Shakambhari Group plans to invest INR 5,000 crore for expanding capacity at the plant.[5]
As of March 2025, the plant has an installed capacity of 759 ttpa for sponge iron, 660 ttpa for billet, 660 ttpa for rolled product, 111 ttpa for ferro alloy and 83 MW of captive power plant.[6]
