In iron and steel
since 1994

Astha Ferro Alloys is the ferro-alloy arm of the Astha Group — a Raipur steel house built on three decades of knowing iron and steel from inception to application.

Our story

From a re-rolling mill to a ferro-alloy producer

The entrepreneurial drive and technical depth of our founder, Mr. Dharamveer R. Nachrani, led him to start his own hot steel re-rolling mills in 1994 in Raipur, Chhattisgarh. He soon became a well-known name in the iron and steel industry — respected for his ethics and for understanding steel right from its inception to its application.

Under his guidance, the Astha Group grew into a multi-faceted house spanning exports, e-commerce, renewable energy, healthcare and medicine, and the manufacturing of ferro alloys.

Founded in 2021, Astha Ferro Alloys Pvt. Ltd. is the group's dedicated bulk ferro-alloy producer. From our plant in the Urla Industrial Area of Raipur — well connected to major industrial towns and shipping ports across India — we cast ferro manganese and silico manganese for steelmakers and foundries nationwide.
