TPI: What are your thoughts on the Indian market? Also, tell us about your plans for the future.
ND: The Indian market has a very good prospect. I feel that in the next five years, India would be able to beat China. We want to achieve exponential growth through worldclass products and services and for that; we are tying up with various companies. This year, we will be making big tube mills, i.e., above 8 inches. In the future, we will go for direct forming sections even for the bigger sizes, i.e. up to 24 inches and 500 X 500 mm. It is important to keep up with technology. We are constantly evaluating our valued suppliers, manufacturing systems and internal procedures to determine where improvements and efficiencies can be made.
