Tata Steel’s Tubes Division has achieved a major milestone by crossing one million tonnes in production and sales during FY25. This achievement further cements Tata Steel’s position as the most diversified player in India’s tubes and pipes segment.
The division’s products serve a broad range of applications — from large-scale infrastructure projects like metro systems, airports, and railways to industrial use cases such as warehouses and construction. Tata Steel Tubes also supplies to the automotive sector, catering to both two-wheeler and four-wheeler manufacturers, along with the oil and gas industry. Its offerings extend to everyday retail needs as well, including materials for roofing, sheds, and gates, all distributed through a widespread national network.
Beyond its core product line, Tata Steel Tubes has steadily expanded into solutions-based offerings. These include value-added products like prefabricated door and window frames, handrails, and high aspect ratio tubes — all designed to offer added convenience, strength, and design flexibility.
Prabhat Kumar, Vice President of Marketing & Sales (Flat Products) and Chairperson of the Tubes Profit Centre Council, remarked, “Reaching the one million tonne milestone reflects our continued commitment to innovation, operational efficiency, and understanding customer needs. Our efforts to offer a wider range of solutions have helped us stay ahead in a fast-changing market. This success motivates us to keep growing in ways that support both industrial progress and infrastructure development in India.”
Tata Steel Tubes is India’s top producer of tubes and pipes, with manufacturing facilities located in the eastern and northern regions. The division is also beginning to grow its international footprint, aiming to have exports make up 10% of its total sales in the coming years. Tata Steel Group is one of the top global steel companies, with an annual crude steel capacity of 35 million tonnes per annum. It is highly geographically diversified, with operations and commercial presence across five continents, and recorded a consolidated turnover of approximately US$27.7 billion in the financial year ending March 31, 2024.
