Correct Answer: A) Tata Iron & Steel Company (TISCO)
TISCO, later known as Tata Steel, was established in 1907 by Jamsetji Tata and is recognized as the oldest iron and steel company in India.
Information Booster:
TISCO's establishment marked a significant milestone in India's industrial development, contributing to its self-reliance in steel production. It's located in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand.
Additional Information:
- Visvesvaraiya Iron & Steel Works (VISL): While a significant player, VISL was established (1923) later than TISCO. It's located in Bhadravathi, Karnataka.
- Indian Iron & Steel Company (IISCO): IISCO, though a major steel producer, was also established(1918) after TISCO. It was later merged with SAIL (Steel Authority of India Limited).
- Mysore Iron & Steel Works: This later became VISL. So, it shares the same establishment timeline as VISL and is not the oldest.
