Vatsal Agarwal of Simplex Coke & Refractory- Leading India closer to infrastructural success

Vatsal Agarwal is the founder and director of Coal Company Simplex Coke & Refractory. The Company today is a meaningful player in the Met Coke industry and is one of the significant suppliers of high-tech piling rig machines on rental basis. Simplex Coke & Refractory under the brilliant guidance of Vatsal has set up its manufacturing unit at Porbandar, Gujarat, with pusher type fully mechanized plant. Simplex has tied up with 7 coke manufacturers to build a PAN India presence and crossed the pinnacle of 100 crores turnover in a short duration of 4 years.

“During Covid, the infrastructure industry was badly hit; as it is a labor-intensive industry and everyone was in lockdown so naturally no construction was happening. But now infrastructure and other sectors are reeling back into action and recovering from the after-effects of the pandemic,” says Vatsal Agarwal. Many major projects in the country that were at a standstill during the fateful pandemic have now resumed work.

Vatsal Agarwaal has recently taken over the BSE listed Stratmont Industries Limited has been providing superior quality Met Coke to some of the most high profile and prestigious companies in India that include, Tata Chemicals Limited, Nirma Limited, Saurashtra Chemicals Limited, DCW Limited, Hindalco Industries Limited, Hindustan Zinc Limited, Welspun Steel Limited, Sal Steel Limited, among others.

Vatsal after completing his masters in commerce wasted no time in gaining as much knowledge and expertise in the Infrastructure as well as Met Coke industry. His efforts and foresight has paid off well when Mr. Ganga Prasad who is the Governor of Sikkim in 41st conclave of NRI’s at Constitution club Delhi in April 2022, presented Vatsal with the ‘Yuva Rattan’ award. Yuva Rattan award is rewarded to youth like Vatsal Agarwal for their service towards the nation.

Not one to elude taking risks and hard work, Vatsal has believed in bringing his company into the limelight by way of Coke manufacturing and trading. Vatsal’s company Simplex Coke & Refractory is today among the  big merchant manufacturer and trader of Met Coke in the country.

As Coal Company Director Vatsal says, “Without infrastructure, no nation can achieve economic success. It is the driving force that adds to the progress of the country in more ways than one. Simplex Coke & Refractory has been giving its small but impactful contribution by proving excellent quality Met Coke, which is an essential raw material to produce steel.” Steel is the backbone of the infrastructure industry and thus good quality Met Coke producers like Simplex Coke & Refractory are critical raw material supplier of steel industries.  www.simplexcoke.com
