SAIL's Burnpur plant commissions continuous casting unit.

In the run-up to the final synchronised commissioning of the Burnpur plant of SAIL in West Bengal, it has dispatched TMT coils converted from billets of its own continuous casting unit.

SAIL said though production of TMT coils at the new wire rod mill commenced last year, it has so far been using billets from SAIL's Durgapur Steel Plant. The recent commissioning of Burnpur's continuous casting unit has facilitated output of billets.
