CM, Arunachal PradeshThe portal boasts a robust data entry system, ensuring consistent and authentic data, which promotes transparency and accountability. Integration of various databases enables stakeholders to locate areas of risk and, thereby, permit better risk management, e.g., if an import consignment declares a particular source of import, that is not licensed by BIS, then Ministry will be enabled to not recommend its import. The detailed data will enable Customs to conduct better analysis and risk management of steel imports.
Shri H.D. Kumaraswamy, Union Minister of Steel, emphasized that the launch of SIMS 2.0 is a key achievement, highlighting its inclusion in the Government of India's 100-day agenda. He noted that this milestone represents a crucial step forward in the nation's endeavor to bolster the domestic steel industry and achieve self-sufficiency in steel production, aligning with the vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat.
