Rhetan TMT, a leading manufacturer of TMT steel bars, expects to participate in government and public sector undertaking (PSU) projects with recent Bureau of Indian Standards certification for premium TMT grades.The company recently completed installation of a 1 MW captive solar power project. It plans to expand market reach while building a more efficient and sustainable manufacturing ecosystem.The company has received BIS licence for manufacturing premium-grade Fe500D, Fe550 and Fe550D TMT bars. The certification enables Rhetan TMT to supply premium-grade TMT bars for government and PSU infrastructure projects across India, opening access to a high-value market segment that was previously beyond the company’s reach.It also strengthens its product portfolio and reinforces its commitment to delivering high-quality products that meet the evolving requirements of India’s infrastructure sector.Alongside expanding its product capabilities, Rhetan TMT has strengthened its manufacturing operations with the completion of its 1 MW captive ground-mounted solar power project.Having secured all major regulatory approvals, including GEDA registration and NHAI permission, the project is expected to begin generating power in the first week of August.As energy remains one of the most significant input costs in steel manufacturing, the project is expected to strengthen the company’s long-term cost competitiveness while supporting more sustainable manufacturing practices.Shalin Shah, Managing Director of Rhetan TMT said the BIS certification is an important step that expands the company’s presence in the premium steel segment, while the commissioning of captive solar power project will help build a more efficient manufacturing ecosystem.These initiatives are part of a long-term vision to create a stronger and more competitive company to support infrastructure growth more efficiently, he added.Published on July 27, 2026
