Brij Bhushan Agarwal, chairman and managing director, Shyam Metalics and Energy, said, This marks the next phase of Shyam Metalics evolution from scaleled growth to value-led growth.

The investments in specialty steel and advanced stainless downstream products will help us move further up the value chain, support import substitution, and strengthen Indias manufacturing capabilities. Importantly, these expansions are being funded entirely through internal accruals, reflecting both our balance sheet strength and disciplined approach to growth.
