Jindal Stainless, India’s largest stainless steel manufacturer, was felicitated by Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), at New Delhi, during BHEL SAMVAAD 3.0 held recently.
The felicitation was received for developing C276 cladded plates, used in thermal power plants, and alloy steel plates SA387 GR 91 (9 Cr 1 Mo), for application in super critical boilers.
Earlier, C276 cladded plates as well as GR 91 plates were being imported from the European Union, China, and Japan.
Commenting on this development, Managing Director, Jindal Stainless, Mr Abhyuday Jindal, said, “We appreciate the indigenisation efforts of BHEL, and the Ministries of Heavy Engineering and Steel.
As a Swadeshi company, it perfectly aligns with our motto of creating a self-sustainable India. Though we have been associated with BHEL for a long time, I especially acknowledge the role played by our operations, business development, R&D and other teams in executing this far-reaching project within a couple of years.
With domestic availability of these products now, projects will be completed faster, and precious forex can be saved for the country. Besides, it’s always a matter of pride to contribute to the government’s mission of creating an Atmanirbhar Bharat.”
