It has an added significance at this juncture in our economy when the twin objectives of defence and development are the forefront. Mandi Gobindgarh, popularly known as Jamshedpur of Punjab occupies an integral position in the production of iron and steel in the country. In this setting of argument, the present study is an attempt to look into capital intensity of iron and steel re-rolling industry at Mandi Gobindgarh.
