Jindal Steel & Power Ltd (JSPL) recently announced the commissioning of a new 5 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) blast furnace at its Angul plant in Odisha, marking a key milestone in its ongoing expansion project worth over ₹20,000 crore.

In a statement, the company said the newly commissioned blast furnace, with an inner volume of 5,499 cubic meters, is one of the largest in India.
