It is noteworthy that SAIL has started its participation in “Purvodaya” to promote industrial infrastructure around its plants located across the country and achieve overall socio-economic development through a special incentive scheme.
The plan, titled "Development of Steel Areas: With SAIL", aims to contribute to the overall development of the districts where these plants are located.
SAIL will arrange inventory for MSMEs who are registered under the scheme based on their monthly consumption so as to reduce the burden of inventory and large working capital requirement.
