OfBusiness, a b2b commerce and fintech startup, is looking to invest around Rs 3,000 crore in multiplying its steel business to over 4MTPA in the next three years.
The company acquired three steel firms — SMW Ispat, Shree Sidhbali Ispat and Noble Steel — in the past and expansion has been incorporated in all three companies.
“We look forward to investing close to $350 million, which is about Rs 3,000 crore, to grow our steel business from two million tonnes to over four million tonnes in the next three years.
This is also expected to significantly increase the sector’s EBITDA to 2.5x from the current level. The funding will be a combination of internally raised funds and debt and equity funds,” said founder and CEO Asish Mohapatra.
The company supplies steel to companies like L&T, Adani, J Kumar, Dilip Buildcon, Ashoka Buildcon.
OfBusiness also plans to enter new categories such as pre-painted galvanized iron (PPGI) in addition to bars and structures treated with thermo-mechanical treatment (TMT).
The company is also planning a 1 billion IPO in FY26.
“We have been consistently successful in expanding our business and have been a part of India’s incredible journey of growing the USD 10 trillion economy.
To support our expansion plans we are looking forward to our $1 billion IPO in FY2026,” said Mohapatra.
