The company is the largest producer of Saw Pipes, which is widely used in the energy sector for the transporation of oil and gas. The company is a market leader and a global major in providing 'Total Pipe Solutions' to the industry. 

 
The Company has an integrated facilities at multiple locations. Further the company gas diversified from a single product company to a multi-product company, manufacturing large diameter Submerged Arc Welded pipes & Sprial pipes and bends for energy transportation sector. Carbon, alloy and stainless steel seamless tubes manufactured by conical piercing process are used for industrial applications and Ductile iron pipes for water and sewage transportation. 

 
The business operations of the company are structured as Saw Pipes, Seamless Tubes, Ductile Iron Spun Pipes and the US Operations. 

 
 The company has obtained technical assistance from US Engineers and Consultants, a subsidiary of US Steel Corporation for its products. Further company has nine manufacturing facilities located at 4 places in India i.e KosiKalan (UP), Mundra (Gujarat), Nashik(Maharashtra), Swastik Foils(New Delhi) and through affiliates it also manages the largest pipe mill in the US, supported by a plate mill with a matching capacity. The Nashik facility produces stainless/Carbon steel seamless tubes and pipes and the New Delhi unit produces CR stainless steel precision coils of thin and ultra thin gauges. 

 
The Subsidiaries of JSL are Hexa Securities & Finance Company Limited, Jindal Enterprises LLC and IUP Jindal Hexa Metals Limited 

 
 The company has continually expanded and consolidated its operations. It has amalgamated Swastik Foils in 1988-89 with itself and as part of backward integration the Swastik Udyog, a subsidiary of Jindal Strips which produces thicker gauge steel stripes was merged with the company in 1991-92. It commissioned its composite coating project at Kandla, Gujarat in 1998-99 and the 100% EOU for manufacture of Longitudinal Welded SAW Pipes at Mundra, Gujarat has been completed and commenced trial production. Its seamless tube division is under lock out, long term viable solutions are worked out for the operations of the division. 

 
The modernisation plan was completed for its Nashik plant and the production is expected to commence very soon. Since United States is the largest market for large diameter pipes, the company plans to benefit from the synergies available from the market, it has opened branch office in US. It has got a significant stake in SAW pipes Inc USA, which is having a largest pipe manufacturing capacity in US. 
 
 During 2003-04, the company established, IUP Jindal Hexa Metals Limited a joint venture company between the company and Imphy Ugine Precision, IUP, France, one of the divisions of Arcelor group for manufacturing of high precision metal to be used in electronics industry and other applications. The Company has transferred its Swastik Foils Division into the joint venture company and it is holding 73% in the joint venture company. The company has strated its Trial Production with effect from 7th October 2005 and raised its first invoice on 24th October 2005. Further the company has also decided a dispatch plan of 14000 MT from the year 2006. 

 
The company has increased the installed capacity of Iron & Steel Pipes by 700000 MT during 2004-05 and with this expansion the total installed capacity of Iron & Steel Pipes has increased to 1250000 MT. Further the company has installed a new capacity of Pig Iron with a capacity of 200000 MT. 

 
The name of the company has been changed from Saw Pipes Limited to Jindal Saw Limited (JSL) with effect from 11th January 2005.


Review Of Operations: 

 
Strong growth in energy and urban infrastructure (including water & sewage segments) propelled the Company's all round performance. Year 2005-06 was another period of achievements for the Company registering a sale of Rs.40614.8 Millions as compared to Rs.23928.2 Millions for the previous year, thereby registering the growth of 70%. The PAT for the year grew by 75% to Rs.1762.0 Millions in the year ended September, 2006 as compared to Rs.1007.3 Millions achieved in previous year. 

 
In the year 2004-05 the Company had created four separate strategic business units (SBU) to improve and maximize the operational efficiency. This move has yielded rich dividends in the form of all round performance reflected by improved results. The financial strategy of the Company has also paid well in controlling the financial cost even in the increasing interest rate regime. 

 
For repayment of certain high cost debts, the Company entered into global financial market in September 2005 by issuing Global Depository Shares (GDSs) aggregating to USD 75 Million @USD 7.99 per GDS. To part finance the ongoing capital expenditure program, during the year, the Company issued 0.75% Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCB) aggregating to JPY 9,090 Million (app. USD 80 million) at a YTM of 4% p.a. Both issuance of GDS and FCCB had met with good response thereby demonstrating the confidence of the international financial community in the Company. 

 

OUTLOOK: 
 
SAW pipe, Seamless pipe and Ductile Pipe industry caters to the infrastructure requirements of an economy. In India high targets of growth in terms of gross domestic product have been set in the range of 8-9% per annum. Industry experts have already expressed the need for greater infrastructure development in the country to meet such ambitious targets. Energy is one of the key infrastructure areas, which need to be developed. The transportation of oil and gas is key factor as power and downstream units assume significance. Major investment in the exploration of oil and gas reserves in the country has resulted in the identification of reserves by private sector as well. All these developments are expected to culminate in a major demand for line pipes, the most secure and cheap mode of transportation of oil and gas. In addition, the goal of supplying water to the most remote villages and the development of water supply and sewerage systems should continue to generate demand for pipes in the water sector. 
 
Thus, looking forward, they believe that there will be substantial growth in the energy and water segments, and hence demand for our products will remain strong. Incremental long-term energy demand will be driven, in our view, by the industrialization of not only India but also other nations. This incremental demand must be satisfied, at least in the foreseeable future, by oil and natural gas. This should, in turn, lead to generally higher levels of drilling activity around the world.


 
The Company is well positioned to become a market leader in every market segment they serve with geographic diversity that not only creates growth opportunities but also reduces our exposure to any one market and with product lines that are diverse in application and customer base.
