NgoMeyi 27, uNgqongqoshe wezeziMali u-Nirmala Sitharaman umemezele ezinkundleni zokuxhumana ukuthi izwe linqume ukwenza uchungechunge lwezinguquko ohlelweni lwentela yezinto ezibalulekile, kusukela ngoMeyi 22, kubika abezindaba jikelele.
Ngaphezu kokwehliswa kwentela evela kwamanye amazwe emalini yokubhaka amalahle ne-coke isuka kumaphesenti angu-2,5 namaphesenti angu-5 iye kumaphesenti angu-0, isinyathelo saseNdiya sokwenyusa kakhulu intela yokuthekelisa ngemikhiqizo yensimbi emazweni angaphandle sidonsela ukunaka.
Ukubuka okuqondile, i-India kuya ububanzi obungaphezulu kuka-600 mm okuginqika okushisayo, ukugoqa okubandayo kanye nebhodi lokunamathisela okuphoqelela intela yokuthumela ngaphandle engu-15% (ngaphambili ebiyiziro), insimbi, amapellets, insimbi yengulube, i-bar wire kanye nezinye izinhlobo zentela yokuthekelisa ngaphandle kwensimbi engagqwali. inokwenyuka kwezinga elihlukile, okuhlanganisa insimbi yensimbi kanye nezintela zokuthumela umkhiqizo ezigxilisiwe ngo-30% (zisebenza kuphela kokuqukethwe kwensimbi okungaphezu kuka-58% webhulokhi), Lungisa ku-50% (kuzo zonke izigaba).
USitharaman uthe ukushintshwa kwentela yezimpahla zokusetshenziswa zensimbi kanye nabaphakathi kuzokwehlisa izindleko zokukhiqiza ekhaya kanye namanani entengo yemikhiqizo yokugcina ukuze kuliwe nokwehla kwamandla emali asekhaya aphezulu.
Imboni yendawo yensimbi ayibonakali yanelisekile ngalokhu kumangala okungazelelwe.
I-Jindal Steel and Power (JSPL), engumkhiqizi wesihlanu ngobukhulu e-India, ingase iphoqeleke ukuthi ikhansele ama-oda kubathengi baseYurophu futhi balahlekelwe yisinqumo sasebusuku sokukhokhisa intela yokuthekelisa ngemikhiqizo yensimbi, kusho umqondisi ophethe uVR Sharma etshela abezindaba.
I-JSPL ine-backlog yokuthunyelwa kwempahla elinganiselwa ku-2 million tonnes eya e-Europe, kusho u-Sharma.“Bekumele basinike okungenani izinyanga ezi-2-3, besingazi ukuthi kuzoba nomgomo oqine kangaka.Lokhu kungaholela ekuphoqeni okukhulu futhi amakhasimende akwamanye amazwe abenzanga lutho olubi futhi akufanele baphathwe kanje.”
USharma uthe isinqumo sikahulumeni singanyusa izindleko zezimboni ngemali engaphezu kuka-$300 million.“Amanani amalahle okuphekela asephezulu kakhulu futhi noma intela yempahla evela kwamanye amazwe isusiwe, ngeke kwanele ukunxephezela umthelela wentela yokuthekelisa embonini yensimbi.”
Inhlangano ye-Indian Iron and Steel Association (ISA), okuyiqembu labakhi bensimbi, esitatimendeni ithe i-India ibilokhu inyusa ukuthunyelwa kwensimbi emazweni angaphandle kule minyaka emibili edlule futhi kungenzeka ithathe ingxenye enkulu yokuthengwa kwempahla emhlabeni jikelele.Kodwa i-India manje ingase ilahlekelwe ngamathuba okuthumela ngaphandle futhi ukwabelana kuzoya nakwamanye amazwe.
