The filing says the products serve domestic and international markets, and the company says the alloys are designed to improve coating consistency and the long-term performance of galvanized steel.
What the two alloys are
VedAZ is a zinc-aluminium alloy for galvanizing baths. The company says it gives better control of aluminium levels in the bath, supports uniform coating thickness, and has a composition designed to reduce dross formation and zinc losses.
VedAyush is a zinc-aluminium-magnesium alloy. The company says the magnesium is meant to improve corrosion resistance, coating adhesion and surface stability, particularly in humid and coastal conditions. The launch date is 03 Nov 2026.

CEO and Whole-time Director Amarendu Prakash said the company wants value-added products to become a larger part of its portfolio.
