Small units have mushroomed in Adityapur because of the Tata Steel unit there. "The Adityapur Industrial Area model will be replicated at the downstream park coming up near the Kalinganagar facility. The company has also facilitated the development of ancillaries that are part of the vendor base that supply goods and services to Tata Steel," said a company spokesperson.Īn official with the Odisha Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation (Idco) said the state government would partner Tata Steel in this planned development. "Over the years, Tata Steel has been able to attract high-end and technology-driven companies such as Nippon Steel and Sumitomo Metals, Bluescope Steel, Robbins Fraser, Praxair, etc, to invest in downstream and ancillary units in Jamshedpur. Aomw of these might be persuaded to put up plants around Kalinganagar. Some of the group ancillaries and downstream units include The Tinplate Company of India, Tata Steel Processing and Distribution, Jamshedpur Continuous Annealing & Processing Company, Tata Pigments, Tata Bluescope and Jamipol. Tata Steel has encouraged and facilitated the setting up of ancillaries and downstream units in and around Jamshedpur. They are possibly trying to replicate the Jamshedpur model," said an industry source. "Tata Steel is looking for downstream and ancillaries which can service its mother plant at Kalinganagar. At a recent meet organised jointly with the Odisha government at Kalinganagar, it had invited around 40 companies in the sector. Tata Steel is believed to have started negotiations with select downstream and ancillary makers. Together, these provide direct employment to about 28,000 people (an estimated 11,500 tribals and locals) the latest annual turnover was Rs 3,550 crore. Located eight km from the steel city there, the Adityapur Industrial Area Development Authority is home to nearly 800 large, medium, small and tiny enterprises. It seems likely to be modelled on the Adityapur Industrial Area in Jamshedpur, the company's original base. The proposed complex for ancillary and downstream steel units is set to be developed on 400 acres. It has operationalised a capacity of three million tonnes a year in the first phase. Tata Steel plans to develop an eco-system for ancillary and downstream units in the vicinity of its Kalinganagar project in Odisha's Jajpur district.
