NEW DELHI:

Post expansion, which will come up over an area of 1,200 acre, RSP will alone contribute around 25% to SAIL's overall 35 million tonne per annum (MTPA) production capacity target by 2030, Alok Verma, director in-charge, RSP said.

Located at Rourkela in Odisha, around 320 km from state capital Bhubaneswar, RSP holds the distinction of being the first public sector steel plant in India. It was set up in 1950s with German collaboration with an initial capacity of 1 MT.
