CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Importance of creating standard to ensure that steel industry customer- and there by
consumer that the steel they use has been sourced and produced responsibly at every stage.
The industrial sector, manufacturing service and trade industry need to acquire
Consumers, steel industry keep pace with the growing needs of the customers, primarily in
automotive and construction sectors.
Focus on the value added products throughout the customer’s purchase journey.
Steel has had majorly influence on our regular uses. Steel is used in electricity-power-
line towers, natural gas pipelines, machine tools, military weapons etc. steel is compared to
other materials of its type has low production cost. Steel is environment friendly as it can be
recycled.
The growth in the Indian steel sector has been driven by the domestic availability of
raw materials such as iron ore and cost-effective labor. Consequently, the steel sector has
been a major contributor to India's manufacturing output.
The Indian steel industry is modern, with state-of-the-art steel mills. It has always
strived for continuous modernization of older plants and up-gradation to higher energy
efficiency levels.
The Indian steel industry is classified into three categories - major producers, main
producers and secondary producers.
One of the primary forces behind industrialization has been the use of metals. Steel has
traditionally occupied a top spot among metals. Steel production and consumption are
frequently seen as measures of a country's economic development because it is both a raw
material and an intermediary product. Therefore, it would not be an exaggeration to argue that
the steel sector has always been at the forefront of industrial progress and that it is the
foundation of any economy.
History of Steel Industry in India
Phase – I
The year 1956, marked the beginning of the Ferro Alloys Corporation Limited at
Sriramnagar, Garividi, Vizianagaram district, Andhra Pradesh. The founder was Seth Shriman
Durgaprasadji Saraf (1911–1988). The registered office is at Tumsar, Bhandara district,
Maharashtra.[29] The ferromanganese plant started production in 1957, equipped with
three furnaces for production of high carbon ferromanganese and ferrosilicon. In 1969, a
reduction furnace and a slag furnace were commissioned for the production of ferrochrome.
The company independently, set up a 16 MVA furnace in 1981.
The Bhilai Steel Plant, located in Bhilai, Chhattisgarh is India's first large scale
integrated steel plant, a major producer of wide steel plates and other steel products. The plant
also produces steel and markets various chemical by-products from its coke ovens and coal
chemical plant. It was set up with the help of the USSR in 1955.
JSW Steel, Vijayanagar Works is the largest integrated steel plant in terms of
production capacity with 12MTPA(steel production) which was set up in 1982. Apart from
that, Bhilai Steel Plant and Bokaro Steel Plant are the largest steel plant in-terms of area.
Phase – II
Modern steelmaking in India began with the setting of the first blast furnace of
India at Kulti in 1870 and production began in 1874, which was set up by Bengal Iron Works.
While first modern steel manufacturing plant was set up at the Gun & Shell Factory (GSF), in
1801, and along with the Metal & Steel Factory (MSF), at Calcutta, both still belonging to
the Yantra India Limited. All had followed on from the establishment of Coal mining in India,
in the late 18th century, which eliminated the need for approximately 14.5 tons of charcoal to
be created to smelt each tons of iron, and offering a source of power for the trains and riverboats
used to carry the ores and smelted metals.
Mr. Dorabji Tata established the Tata iron and steel company (TISCO) in 1907,
as part of his father's conglomerate. By 1939, it operated the largest steel plant in the British
Empire and accounted for a significant proportion of the 2 million tons of pig iron and 1.13 of
steel produced annually. The company launched a major modernization and expansion program
in 1951.

National steel policy – 2005 has the long-term goal of having a modern and efficient
steel industry of world standards in India. The focus is to achieve global competitiveness not
only in terms of cost, quality, and product mix but also in terms of global benchmarks of
efficiency and productivity.
The Policy aims to achieve over 100 million metric tons of steel per year by 2019-20
from the 2004-05 level of 38 mt. This implies annual growth of around 7.3% per year from
2004-5 onward.
The strategic goal above is justified because steel consumption in the world, around
1000 million metric tons in 2004, is expected to grow at 3.0% per annum to reach 1,395 million
metric tons in 2015, compared to 2% per annum in the past fifteen years. China will continue
to have a dominant share of the demand for world steel. Domestically, the growth rate of steel
production over the past fifteen years was 7.0% per annum. The projected rate of 7.3% per
annum in India compares well with the projected national income growth rate of 7-8% per
annum, given an income elasticity of steel consumption of around one.

analysis and t-test. Through the analysis of the data, it was found that liquidity position had
positive impact on the profitability of the selected firms.
Features of Customer Satisfaction
Customer satisfaction is very crucial for the growth of any business. At Tata Steel,
value creation is the process of going beyond meeting the customer's basic needs. This is done
by understanding the customer, through inputs and observations. Some of the features of
customer satisfaction are the following:-
It is imperative that Tata steel ltd. company keep pace with the growing needs of
customers, primarily those in the Automotive and Construction sectors. They aim to deliver
enhanced benefits through customized services and solutions and value-added products
throughout the customer’s purchase journey. They are foraying into new lines of business to
insulate ourselves from the cyclicality of the steel industry through continuous development of
solutions beyond steel such as Pravesh Steel Doors and Windows.
The key differentiator of our marketing strategy has been our ability to develop and
sustain relationships with our customers and channel partners, while managing a countrywide
distribution network.
For the effective customer satisfaction extensive knowledge of the products and
services is important. Customer would want proper information regarding their product before
they buy therefore knowledge about the service and products is necessary, give information
about how to use product, what are the new features in the product, product martial safety the

Satisfaction does not only depend on the quality and type of customer experience, but
also on the customer’s expectations. Even if the company offers higher price over a cheap
product or service as long as they are treatedright majority of customer will choose the company
that keeps them satisfied. Therefore, it is necessary to satisfy customers with good service than
offering them lucrative prices. By good trust and by being loyal with the customers they will
keep on coming back to buy the product and services from the company.
The feedback of customer
Through constant feedback from the customer satisfaction, it will help in the
improvement of the production and services. By simply asking the customer it will help the
company to understand what are they lacking and both positive and negative feedback, which
will help them in improvising their products and services.

SUGGESTIONS
From the findings and analysis of Tata steel ltd for the last five year, we can
conclude somesuggestions for company so that the company can be more efficient to
generate profit.
Current ratio of Tata steel ltd is low it should increase its current ratio where it can meet
it short-term obligation smoothly.
The company should be maintaining a sound short-term debts paying capacity in future
because the use of more amount of external funds may lead to short-term insolvency.
Liquid ratio of Tata steel ltd is low. Therefore, I suggest that a company maintain proper
liquid funds.
All operational and related activities should be performed efficiently and effectively.
Tata steel ltd has sound solvency position but the Company has to avail on the benefit of
trading on equity.
For the very existence and growth, every company has to earn adequate profit.
As regards profitability, the company witnessed a fluctuating trend throughout
the study period, which is not desirable from the management of
The company. To keep the shareholders‟ happy and reliable the rate of return
to the equity shareholders should be consistent in the years to come.
