How business works in Jamnagar

The chain starts with brass scrap and virgin copper and zinc, melted into billets and extruded into rod. Rod goes out by weight to turners on cam-auto and CNC lathes, then to forgers, platers and sorting units, and comes back as counted parts with turnings returned to the melter. The day's metal rate sets the price of almost everything.

Buyers are electrical, switchgear and sanitary brands in India, and importers and OEMs abroad. Domestic brands often pay in 45 to 120 days; export buyers pay by advance, letter of credit or open account.

Since 10 October 2024, CBIC notifications put metal scrap sold between registered businesses under reverse charge, and the buyer deducts 2% GST TDS on such purchases above ₹2.5 lakh. A melter's purchase book now needs both handled correctly.
