Growth:
Auto Re-Rolling and Steel Mills industry of Bangladesh is
directly related to the growth of construction and housing
sector particularly in semi-urban and rural areas. Infrastructural
development is also dependent on CI sheets as it is used for
roofing, side and peripheral fencing. Around 30% of households
in rural and urban areas are constructed with GP/CI sheet
materials. As supportive material, GP/CI sheets are widely used
in other civil constructions as well.
At Present, total demand for CI sheet in the country stands
around 600-700 thousand MT for both residential and
Commercial needs. Around 65% of total demand is satisfied by
local manufacturers. Some portion is imported by small local
traders. But still, there is a shortage to meet local demand of CI
sheet in the country.
Large 5-6 companies mainly dominate the market. These firms
are – Abul Khair Steel Mills, PHP Steels Mills, KY Steel Mills, S.
Alam Cold Rolled Steels Ltd. Galco Steels and TK steel Mills. In
2013-14 Budget, 5% regulatory duty was exempted leaving 25%
Custom Duty on import of CR Coil.

The Company will enjoy uninterrupted power supply from
its subsidiary- S. Alam Power Generation Ltd. This plant
will reduce the production cost of the company and
increase efficiency. It is expected that the power plant will
start its operation in May 2015.
The Company’s operation is directly linked with the
Government’s ADP implementation. Therefore, it may
enjoy improvement in its earnings in the next quarter
(April-June) since ADP implementation rate is relatively
higher in the April-June quarter.
