Odisha is now emerging as a significant manufacturing hub, apart from being a mineral hub, in steel, aluminium, energy, food processing and petrochemicals. The state currently has the production of more than 41 million tonnes of steel and has set a goal of 130 million tonnes by 2030, which could account for 50% of India&#8217;s steel production.<\/p>\n<p>The figures are convincing. For the first time, the &#8216;Utkarsh Odisha&#8217; business conclave hosted investment proposals worth Rs. 17 lakh crores. India&#8217;s oldest steel plant and one of the biggest integrated plants is in operation here at Tata Steel. The state has a significant presence of ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel, JSW Steel and JSPL. The numbers have a story to tell of industrialists and business builders who moulded the economic destiny of Odisha.

The State has a rich deposit of high-grade iron ore, bauxite, chromite, manganese, coal and limestone, the raw materials of the steel, aluminium and cement industries. The resource base is a structural cost advantage that is not possible for most Indian States. Moreover, the government of Odisha has built infrastructure for the port at Paradip and Dhamra in the standard of the world class, which will provide the manufacturers with a safe export market in the southeast Asian and European markets.<\/p>\n<p>The state&#8217;s industrial parks at Kalinganagar, which claim to be the biggest integrated steel hub in Asia, have been able to draw in a varied population of ancillary manufacturers and downstream processors. The government has taken a significant step towards promoting ease of doing business, digital single window clearances and incentive packages, sector by sector.

His concept of community industrialisation, the provision of schools, hospitals and townships in the vicinity of industries, is still a model for responsible industrial development in industrialised areas with abundant resources but poor economies.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Rajeev_Jhawar_%E2%80%93_Usha_Martin_Wire_Ropes\"><\/span><strong>9.

Patnaik is the Managing Director of IDCO and has a pivotal facilitative role in the industrial ecosystem of Odisha by linking the industrialists with the developed land, infrastructure and single window clearances. IDCO operates more than 74 industrial estates in Odisha, and has played a pivotal role in transforming Kalinganagar into a major integrated steel hub in Asia. As a result of the leadership of IDCO, the decisions taken by dozens of private industrialists to set up their plants in Odisha instead of other states have been directly influenced.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Import%E2%80%93Export_Opportunity_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>Import\u2013Export Opportunity Analysis<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>New MSMEs and startup entrepreneurs have ample scope for business opportunities in the export segment in Odisha due to its industrial structure. The steel, aluminium and ferro alloys production contribute to the steel supply chains in the world, in the automotive, construction, aerospace and energy sectors. For the downstream processors and component manufacturers, the availability of raw material at competitive cost and reliability due to the proximity to JSPL, Tata Steel, NALCO and IMFA were the advantages. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cii.in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) <\/a>is proactively playing its part in providing opportunities to export market linkages to Odisha manufacturers through various export promotion programmes, trade missions and through the FEDO.<\/p>\n<p>Exporters based in Odisha have competitive shipping options to the markets in Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern and European countries with the expansion of Paradip Port, and the modern terminal infrastructure at Dharma Port. These new MSMEs operating in areas such as stainless-steel manufacturing, aluminium casting, chemical manufacturing, and food processing could become part of Odisha&#8217;s export ecosystem by playing the role of a value-added player (VAP) in the existing large industry value chains.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Build_a_profitable_business_with_the_right_idea\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/startup-selector\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Build a profitable business with the right idea<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Indian_MSME_Success_Stories_Lessons_from_Odishas_Industrial_Ground\"><\/span><strong>Indian MSME Success Stories: Lessons from Odisha&#8217;s Industrial Ground<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"IMFA_Vertical_Integration_in_Ferro_Alloys\"><\/span><strong>IMFA: Vertical Integration in Ferro Alloys<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Indian Metals and Ferro Alloys (IMFA) established its competitive edge by owning the mining of chromite and smelting of ferrochrome in the same enterprise. That meant the company was no longer tied to any outside ore suppliers, and it provided cost control that a competitor who bought ore on a spot basis would not be able to duplicate. The lesson for the new entrepreneurs: any vertical integration that doesn&#8217;t spread the focus too thin creates a structural cost moat that allows them to make money during commodity cycles.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NALCO_Public_Sector_Excellence_in_Aluminium\"><\/span><strong>NALCO: Public Sector Excellence in Aluminium<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The NALCO model of combining bauxite mining, alumina refining, smelting and captive power generation is textbook value chain management. The company has been successful in the aluminium market in the world, despite the competition of private sector companies from the Gulf countries and China, which is attributed to the advantage of captive energy and raw material supply. The MSMEs in the aluminium downstream activities such as aluminium fabrication, casting and extrusion could reap huge benefits by locating their businesses close to Angul smelter of NALCO.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tata_Steel_Kalinganagar_Long-Term_Vision_Over_Short-Term_Returns\"><\/span><strong>Tata Steel Kalinganagar: Long-Term Vision Over Short-Term Returns<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Initially, Tata Steel&#8217;s Kalinganagar investment had to battle several hurdles and opposition. The group&#8217;s continued efforts in the face of the challenges of a greenfield project, its stakeholder engagement and its building of infrastructure along with the plant are an embodiment of industrial patience transforming a challenging greenfield project into an industrial anchor.
