JSW Steel has commissioned the first phase of 2.3 million tonne per annum (MTPA) Cold Rolling Mill-2 at Toranagallu in Karnataka’s Bellary district. In this regard, the company has invested Rs 4,500 crore to set up the plant in technical collaboration with Japan’s JFE Steel.
The CRM-1 is already operational since 8 years and manufactures special steel for under body parts in passenger cars.
By commissioning of the Cold Rolling Mill, the company is targeting to capture a sizeable portion of auto-grade steel market in India.

Further, the company is planning to capture a sizeable portion of this market, which is estimated to grow at 0-15% in the coming years.
