What changed

NMDC Steel Limited published GeM bid GEM/2026/B/7906323 on 12 August 2026 for procurement of 1,626 carbon-steel and mild-steel pipes—including seamless ASTM A106, MS ERW, and spiral-welded lines—for its Jagdalpur facility in Bastar, Chhattisgarh, closing 2 September 2026 at 18:00 IST.

Pipe sizes span multiple DN schedules under ASTM A106, IS 1239, IS 3589, and ASME B36.10 with lengths from 5.7 to 12 metres, opening a named mill-supply window for Jagdalpur rather than a generic India steel demand note.

Products affected

Primary map: seamless carbon-steel pipes to ASTM A106 Schedule 80, MS ERW light and heavy pipes to IS 1239, spiral-welded CS pipes to IS 3589, and associated fittings sized for NMDC Steel’s Jagdalpur plant maintenance and project lines.

Buyer segments to prioritize

Prioritize NMDC Steel Jagdalpur stores and project procurement running GEM/2026/B/7906323, plus India pipe mills and traders quoting mill test certificates for the 1,626-unit lot before 2 September 2026.

Exporter action

Upload ASTM A106 and IS-compliant mill test certificates, hydrotest records, and Jagdalpur delivery schedules into the GeM pack before 2 September 2026; non-conforming wall thickness or missing IBR documentation risks rejection on seamless lots. Industry estimate: large-diameter seamless pipe mill slots still run 6–10 weeks.
