1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.1 Preamble
M/s Kashi Vishwanath Steels Private Limited (KVS) is an existing industry involved for
production of M S Billet/Rolled products (TMT Bars) through Induction Furnace – CCM –
Rolling Mill route for production of 2,00,000 TPA MS Billets/Ingots & Rolled product
respectively.
To make end product economically viable in present fluctuating market, M/s KVS have
decided to go for expansion by replacement of the existing 5 Tons (02 Nos.) and 4 Tons
(02 Nos.) Induction Furnaces with 6 Tons (03 Nos. - replacement of existing IFs) and 10 Tons
(01 no. replacement & 02 nos. new) capacity Induction Furnaces and modernize
Continuous Casting Machine (CCM) & increasing the output (speed) of existing Rolling
Mill through modernization to enhance the annual production capacity from existing MS
Ingots 57,600 TPA and Steel Bars 88,200 to 2,00,000 TPA respectively.
Capacity expansion by replacing the existing Induction Furnaces will essentially meet the
increasing steel demand. Expansion shall take place within the existing plant area of

Shri Arpan Jindal aged about thirty four years, a management graduate by qualification
and having about ten years’ experience in running industrial units. Apart from being the
brain behind the modernization and expansion activities of the flagship company during
the last few years, he was instrumental in setting up the casting manufacturing facility
and lining up the supply of automobile castings to automobile majors such as TATA
Motors and Bajaj Auto Ltd. at Pant nagar. He was also instrumental in setting up the Food
processing plant in Kashipur to serve the Uttarakhand with highly hygienic food product
like Potato Chips, Extruded Snacks & Indian Ethnic Namkeen, Sticks, Multigrain Chips, Puff
Rings, Sun Chips, Coated Peanuts Masala, & various Indian Ethnic Namkeen.
At that time, there was no steel manufacturing facility in Kumaon region
and KVS foresaw the opportunity and tapped the huge potential that the situation
offered. The company was set up in the year 1985 with a small and manual rolling mill.
During the journey of more than three decades, the company has not only expanded
but also has gone in for backward integration by setting up its own Steel Melting Shop by
installing Induction furnaces. Recently, the company adopted the technology whereby
steel billets produced from induction furnace are directly rolled in the rolling mill, thereby
bypassing altogether the requirement of any fuel. This led to cleaner environment as
there is no fuel consumption and therefore no emission and at the same time, this
enabled the company to cut cost of manufacturing to remain a cost effective option for
its consumers.
After having gone in for various expansions and modernizations, the company, having
four induction furnaces, a continuous casting machine and two rolling mills,
manufactures totally ISI marked products like TMT Bars, Mild Steel Angles, Flats, Squares,
Rounds and Channels of various sizes totaling about sixty five product combinations
under IS specification No. 1786, 2062,15911,2830 and 2831, which is a unique feature in
the region.
In the ever changing steel making technology and market dynamics, KVS has always
been at the forefront to recognize the change and adapt to the fast changing
environment. It is only due to a highly motivated team of executives that the company
has been able to achieve consistent growth inspite of cyclical recessionary trends in the
steel industry and specially the downturn in the recent years.
It has a very wide dealer network across the States of Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh and
National Capital Region. Ethical business conduct, close and regular communication by
marketing team and excellent product quality have ensured that in spite of a very wide
choice, the dealers have been very loyal to the company and have been associated
for a very long period.

The company’s products are ISI certified and enjoy premium over its peers specialty in
the Uttarakhand market. The Quality Management System, Environment Management
System and OHSAS of the company are certified to conform to ISO:9001, ISO:14001 and
OHSAS:18001 respectively.
The Company as well as its promoters was given following awards for their contributions
towards the society and Nation.
1- “PARYAVARAN PURUSKAR” by the Government of Uttarakhand
2- “UDYOG RATAN AWARD” by the Government of Uttarakhand
3- “UDYOG PATRA AWARD” by the Union Minister, Govt. of India

6- “AMAR UJALA EXELLENCE AWARD” by the Union Minister, Govt. of India
In the ever changing steel making technology and market dynamics, KVS has always
been at the forefront to recognize the change and adapt to the fast changing
environment. It is only due to a highly motivated team of executives that the company
has been able to achieve consistent growth inspite of cyclical recessionary trends in the
steel industry and specially the downturn in the recent years.
The company was set up in the year 1985 initially and obtain NOC from Uttar Pradesh
Pollution Control Board on Dated 12.12.1985 for setting up of small Steel industry for the
production of 30.0 MTPD Steel plates, Angles & Channels at Narain Nagar Industrial
Estate, Bazpur Road, Kashipur. Further NOC expansion was taken on dated 24.06.1992
with an expanded capacity of 100 MTPD. Again NOC expansion was taken by the
company on dated 21.12.2005 for the production of MS Ingots – 160 MTPD by installing
additional 05 MT capacity Induction Furnace. On 26.04.2006 further the existing unit was
expand by obtaining prior NOC from UPPCB to produce MS Bars, Angles & Channels –
245 MTPD. M/s KVS has a valid CCA issued by UEPPCB for the Period 01.04.2017 to
31.03.2018 & now applied for further renewal.
M/s Kashi Vishwanath Steels Private Limited is having the existing production capacity of
MS Ingots 57,600 TPA and Steel Bars 88,200. Now Company is proposed for expansion of
the existing Unit by increase in the Production capacity of MS Ingots - 1,42,400 MTPA and
