[Ferro-Alloys.com]  As per available data, the number of steel plants producing crude steel in the country were 901 in 2021-22 with a total capacity of 154.06 million tonnes. The details of State-wise steel production in country are given at Annexure-I. Steel being a deregulated sector, the role of the Government is that of a facilitator. Decisions such as revival/closure of steel plants are taken by individual steel companies from time to time, based on commercial considerations and market dynamics.

The details of targets/achievements of steel production of public sector plants during the last five years is as follows: -
