TISCO is looking up to this man and his nerves of steel to realize its dreams

B. MUTHURAMAN... MD, Tata Steel
TISCO is looking up to this man and his nerves of steel to realize its dreams

His predecessors were legendary corporate leaders like Russi Modi and J.J. Irani. From a graduate trainee to the position of MD, B. Muthuraman has traversed a long distance in Tata Steel. He is credited with completing the 1.2 million tonne cold roll mill project in Jamshedpur much before time. And he does not believe in keeping his experiences a close guarded secret. For more than 15 years now, he has shared with his colleagues’ experiences of visiting a new plant or going overseas. In an earlier interaction with 4Ps B&M, he had said, “You see, I believe all leaders must have a visionary component.” Muthuraman was awarded by the Bombay Management Association’s as the ‘Management Man of the Year Award’ for 2006-07. Muthuraman also was instrumental in cracking the Tata-Corus deal. As captain of the TISCO ship and as a leader who believes in deeds and not words, the steel man is now working towards realising his dream of TISCO becoming the cheapest producer of steel in the world.
