The steel industry in India is currently experiencing unprecedented growth, with significant investments in infrastructure and industrial development. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's initiatives, such as Make in India and Har Ghar Nal Yojana, have spurred massive infrastructure spending, set to double to 143 lakh crores by 2030. This surge in infrastructure projects has a direct impact on the steel pipes industry, which plays a pivotal role in construction, transportation, and industrial growth.
As the steel industry, especially the metallurgy sector, is currently experiencing significant growth, steel pipes play a crucial role in this development. Hutch India, nestled in the vibrant city of Surat, stands as an epitome of innovation, cutting-edge technology, and unwavering commitment to quality. As one of the key players in the steel industry, Hutch has been at the forefront of shaping India's infrastructure development and industrial growth. Benefiting from Kamlesh Agarwal's three decades of experience and expertise in the industry, Hutch has played a crucial role in satisfying the continuously expanding market needs.
“Hutch India is well-positioned to meet the growing demands of India's infrastructure development, which is expected to see massive investments. Also, one of the significant aspects benefiting the steel pipe market is the shift in buying and purchasing from China to India, presenting new export opportunities. This shift has significantly boosted the galvanized steel pipe market, in which Hutch India excels”, states, Siddharth Agarwal, Director, Hutch India.

Hence, Hutch's core competency lies in galvanized pipes. Galvanizing is a meticulous and continuous process, and the company's goal is to establish itself as one of the largest galvanizing manufacturers in India.

Currently producing at one lakh tonnes per annum, they are building a new facility with an initial capacity of 75,000 tons, with plans to reach 1.5 lakh tonnes per annum, including larger diameter pipe sizes. In the long term, their ambition is to reach a remarkable capacity of four lakh tonnes per annum with the addition of four more galvanizing plants. The firm aims to offer a wide range of steel pipes to cater to diverse customer needs.
