NEW DELHI (INDIA): A joint venture steel service centre of JSW Steel and Japan’s Marubeni-Itochu Steel will begin operations at Palval, Haryana by the end of the ongoing fiscal.

“MISI JV started the project work for its steel service centre in Palval, Haryana, with 0.18 MTPA initial capacity. This facility is expected to be commissioned by end of 2017-18 fiscal,” JSW Steel said in a statement.

It further said the service centre is equipped to process flat steel products, such as hot rolled, cold rolled and coated products.
