    Industry Challenges

    Key Challenges in Mill Products

    GST & Statutory Compliance

    Indian steel and mill companies must manage complex GST on metals (18%), e-Way bills for bulk material movements, TDS/TCS, and customs duty on imported raw materials.

    Complex Production Scheduling

    Indian blast furnace operators and rolling mills must optimize continuous casting, heat scheduling, and coil management — with integrated MES and quality management for BIS compliance.

    Raw Material Cost Volatility

    Indian mills face coking coal import price volatility, iron ore royalty changes, and logistic cost pressures — requiring real-time material cost analytics and hedging visibility.

    PLI Scheme & Export Compliance

    Indian specialty steel manufacturers participating in PLI schemes need accurate production tracking, incremental sales reporting, and export compliance for eligible grade categories.
