 (a) Commercial quality;

 (b) Drawing / Deep Drawing quality (D/DD)

(c) Extra Deep Drawing quality (EDD)

(ii) Plain Carbon High Strength steels whether or not Interstitail Free, with UTS >= 350MPa - IF-HS or HS

 (iii) Micro-alloyed steels of Advanced High Strength Quality (AHSS) with minimum UTS >= 590MPa

 (iv) Bake-Hardening Steel with minimum UTS >= 370MPa (BH)

 (v) Dual-Phase Steel with minimum UTS >= 370MPa (DP),

excluding, -

(i) Stainless Steel;

(ii) High Speed Steel, i.e., alloy steels containing, with or without other elements, at least two of the three elements Molybdenum (Mo), Tungsten (W) and Vanadium (V) with a combined content by weight of 7% or more, 0.6% or more of Carbon and 3 to 6% ofChromium;

(iii) Silicon Electrical Steels confirming to Grain Oriented and Non- Grain Oriented Steels i.e. alloy steels containing by weight, atleast 0.6% but not more than 6% of Silicon and not more than 0.08% of Carbon. This steel may also contain by weight not more than 1% of Aluminium but no other element in a proportion that would give the steel the characteristics of other alloy steel.
