India has achieved significant growth in its steel sector, becoming the world's second-largest steel producer in 2018 and maintaining this position until 2023, outpacing Japan. The government's role as a facilitator in creating a conducive policy environment has been vital in this growth. Measures like the DMI&SP Policy and PLI Scheme have been implemented to promote Made in India steel and attract investments. The National Green Hydrogen Mission, Steel Scrap Recycling Policy, and National Solar Mission highlight India's commitment to decarbonisation and renewable energy in the steel industry. Additionally, initiatives such as the PAT scheme for energy efficiency and collaborations with Japan's NEDO for technology adoption demonstrate India's focus on sustainability and modernization in the steel sector. These efforts align with the government's vision to enhance steel usage, overall demand, and investment in the sector, in line with national development plans like Make in India and PM Gati-shakti National Master Plan.
