Mechanical and chemical requirements for Fe 500S under IS 1786:2008 (seismic). These are the minimums we test against before a load is released.
PropertyRequirementWhy it matters on site
0.2% proof / yield stress500 (max 625) N/mm² minSets how much load each bar carries, so it drives the steel quantity in your design
Ultimate tensile strength1.25 x actual yield N/mm² minThe reserve above yield before the bar actually breaks
TS / YS ratio1.25 minA higher ratio means the structure warns you before it fails
Elongation on gauge length18.0% minHow far the bar stretches before fracture — this is what lets you bend it on site
Bend test4d / 5dNo cracking on the outside of the bend at the specified mandrel
Re-bend test5d / 7dCatches embrittlement after ageing, which is where cheap bar fails
Carbon0.25% maxLower carbon means better weldability and less brittleness
Sulphur0.040% maxExcess sulphur causes hot shortness and cracking
Phosphorus0.040% maxExcess phosphorus makes the bar brittle in cold weather
Sulphur + phosphorus0.075% maxThe combined limit is the single best indicator of primary versus secondary steel

Sizes and weight chart

Every load is weighed before it leaves. If the actual weight per metre drifts more than 2% below the nominal figure below, the bundle does not go on the trailer.

Sizes of Fe 500S we hold, with nominal sectional area and unit weight. Actual weight is checked on our weighbridge and held inside ±2% of these figures.

Supplying Delhi

Office and retail construction dominates here, which means larger pours, longer bars and a strong preference for a single supplier who can hold rate across a multi-month programme.

Zone IV means D-grade steel is the working default here. Night entry rules apply to heavy vehicles inside Delhi. Work currently running in and around Delhi includes Delhi Metro Phase 4, central vista precinct works, DDA redevelopment schemes, which is where most of our tonnage in this belt goes.

What Fe 500S is right for

Best used for: Ductile detailing to IS 13920, hospitals, schools and critical buildings in Zone IV and V.

Think twice about: Ordinary commercial work where the premium is not recovered.

Applications

Where Fe 500S goes on site in Delhi

Raft and pile foundations

25 mm to 40 mm in long lengths, usually mill-direct because the tonnage justifies it.

High-rise columns and shear walls

Heavy bars from 20 mm to 40 mm, mostly Fe 500D and Fe 550D, where reduced congestion in the cage matters as much as strength.

Slabs, beams and staircases

8 mm to 16 mm distribution and main steel. The grade you can bend on site without cracking is the grade that gets used.

Boundary walls, plinths and low-rise housing

6 mm to 12 mm, where Fe 415 and Fe 500 still make commercial sense.

Why buy here

How we sell steel in Delhi

No mystery pricing, no quiet weight games. Four things we hold to on every order.

Rolling margin held to plus-minus 2%

Weight per metre is checked on our own weighbridge before despatch. You pay for the steel you receive, not for the tolerance.

25 years in the same trade

Working in structural steel since 2000, through three cycles of the market. The people who take your call have been doing this for decades, not months.

We are stockholders, not brokers

Material sits in our own stockyards under our own name. When you release a purchase order you are buying steel that already exists, not steel we still have to source.

Credit after five clean transactions

First five orders run on advance. After that we sit down and work out a credit line that matches your project cash flow.

Price

What decides your landed price in Delhi

Contractors searching for the best price TMT supplier in bulk usually compare the wrong number. The basic rate per tonne is only one of five things that decide what the steel actually costs you by the time it is standing on site.

  • Basic rate per tonne — moves daily with mill and billet prices.
  • Rolling margin — a supplier working at the loose end of the IS 1786 tolerance delivers less steel for the same money. This is the hidden cost most people miss.
  • Freight to Delhi — 48 hours from Ghaziabad stock point, quoted separately so you can compare it.
  • Diameter mix — small diameters cost more per tonne than 20 mm and above. A load that is mostly 8 mm will never match a load that is mostly 25 mm.
  • Payment terms — 100% advance earns a flat 1% cash discount on the basic value. On a 100 MT order that is real money, and it is the one line on this list you fully control.

Send your bar bending schedule and we will price all five lines against it. For bulk TMT sariya orders above 50 MT in Delhi we can usually hold the rate for the full despatch window rather than repricing each trailer.

Payment

100% advance, and 1% comes off

Steel is a working-capital business. We would rather pass the funding cost back to you than build it into the rate.

100% advance against proforma invoice

Full invoice value paid before despatch earns a flat 1% cash discount on the basic value of the order.

The discount is on the invoice, not a promise

It is shown as a line on the tax invoice, so your accounts and your auditor both see it.

Rate locked for the despatch window

Once the advance is received the rate is held for the agreed schedule, whatever the mill does that week.

Part-despatch is fine

Pay for the full order, lift it in as many trailers as your slab cycle needs.

Credit policy

How credit works here, stated plainly

We do extend credit. We just do it after we know each other, and we say so upfront instead of promising terms we later withdraw.

ORDERS 1 TO 5

100% advance. Every order earns the 1% cash discount. This is where the working relationship gets built.

AFTER THE FIFTH CLEAN TRANSACTION

We sit down with your team, look at your project pipeline, GST returns and payment history, and agree a credit line.

CREDIT TERMS THEREAFTER

Typically 30 to 45 days against PDC or bank guarantee, sized to your monthly offtake and reviewed every quarter.

WHY IT WORKS THIS WAY

A supplier who hands credit to a first-time buyer prices that risk into everyone's rate. We would rather keep the rate honest and earn the credit decision.

Quality

Test it, and reject it if it fails in Delhi

Every buyer has been burned by underweight bundles and secondary steel sold as primary. Here is what removes that risk from your side of the table.

Mill test certificate with every load

Heat number, chemistry and mechanical results, matched to the bundle tags on your delivery challan.

Third-party NABL testing on request

Samples drawn in the presence of your engineer and sent to an independent laboratory. You are welcome to nominate the lab.

Free replacement on rejection

If material fails your consultant's test, we lift it from site and replace it with fresh stock at our cost.

Primary mill material only

We do not sell secondary, re-rolled or unbranded bar as primary. The heat number on the tag is traceable to the mill.

Barter

TMT steel against ready flats: 50% cash, 50% units

For developers sitting on completed but unsold inventory, steel can be paid for partly in units instead of cash. It frees your project to keep moving without drawing down more debt.

50% in cash, 50% in units

Half the order value is settled in cash on the normal advance terms. The balance is settled against ready residential or commercial units.

Units bought at 25% to 30% below market

The unit value is fixed at a 25 to 30 per cent discount to the prevailing market rate for that project, agreed in writing before the first trailer moves.

Occupancy certificate is mandatory

Only completed units with OC received are considered. Under-construction inventory, unsold RERA stock without OC and disputed units are not taken.

Clean title, clean paperwork

Title search, encumbrance check and society or association clearance are completed before the barter agreement is signed.

Every barter proposal is assessed case by case on location, project stage, title and saleability. A discussion costs nothing and takes about a week to conclude. Read the full barter terms.

Questions

Fe 500S in Delhi — the questions buyers actually ask

Do you deliver Fe 500S TMT steel bars to Delhi?
Yes. We despatch from our Ghaziabad stock point and normal lead time to Delhi is 48 hours once the purchase order and payment terms are confirmed. Zone IV means D-grade steel is the working default here. Night entry rules apply to heavy vehicles inside Delhi.
What is the price of Fe 500S TMT steel bar in Delhi today?
Reinforcement steel is priced daily against mill rates, so we do not publish a fixed figure. Send the diameters and tonnage and you will get the basic rate per tonne, GST at 18% and freight to Delhi quoted as three separate lines, usually within the hour.
What is the minimum order for Delhi?
5 MT for a delivered load. Smaller quantities can be lifted directly from the stockyard, and the mill test certificate is issued either way.
Which diameters of Fe 500S do you stock?
10, 12, 16, 20, 25, 32 mm, in 12 metre standard lengths. Cut and bent material to your bar bending schedule is available on request.
Is Fe 500S the right grade for work in Delhi?
Delhi falls in Seismic Zone IV. Ductile detailing to IS 13920, hospitals, schools and critical buildings in Zone IV and V. Where it is not the right call — ordinary commercial work where the premium is not recovered — we will say so and quote the grade that is.
Are you a stockist or a broker?
We are stockholders. Material sits in our own stockyards in our own name, which is why we can confirm despatch the same day for standing stock instead of waiting on a mill allocation.
Do you accept barter against flats or units?
Yes, from developers. Fifty per cent of the order is settled in cash and fifty per cent against ready units carrying an occupancy certificate, valued at 25 to 30 per cent below the prevailing market rate for that project, subject to title due diligence.
Do you give a discount for advance payment?
Yes. Pay 100% of the invoice value before despatch and you get a flat 1% cash discount on the basic value, shown as a line on the tax invoice.
