There are 2 phases to the project. One was the blast furnace commissioned in 2017 by the said Chinese company & another one last month. As far as those photographs go is there a time stamp on them ?
Assuming they were related to the current project , the Chinese company in question would merely be acting as a supplier , if at all. There's absolutely no evidence either written or photographs or videos suggesting they commissioned the blast furnace last month.
Both you & the Chinese sources you're linking here don't provide evidence that the project the Chinese company claims to have executed is for the blast furnace commissioned last month nor does the client Tata Steel make any mention of a Chinese company or consultancy being involved in the current project.
What the Chinese company is doing is recycling old news for reasons it knows best & you're blindly linking such articles here without verifying facts for your propaganda purposes here.
Please do take note of the entire exchange . @SKC ; @Suryavanshi
Why should they ? Do you think they're in the business of dispelling rumours you have circulated or are they in the business of making steel ?Tata is welcome to refute the rumours

Tata Steel and CISDI will be forming a deeper bond for future Tata projects
Date:2023/10/20 Source: CISDI
Avneesh Gupta, vice-president of Tata Steel, recently headed to China for a high-powered meeting with the head of CISDI.
Views on the global steel sector, and plans for a deeper co-operation, were discussed by the leaders and executives of both companies - including Xuewen Xiao, chairman of CISDI.
Mr Xiao thanked Tata Steel for its consistent trust and support as CISDI engineers and supplies its Kalinganagar blast furnace 2.
He pledged that his team would be going all-out to enable a smooth startup and ramp-up.
“In response to the new challenges of global steel development and those facing our overseas customers, CISDI has taken the initiative, adjusting its international development strategy and improving its market layout and business systems,” commented Mr Xiao.
“CISDI has achieved great success with its developments for industrial green and low-carbon, intelligent manufacturing and full-process high-efficiency and low-cost solutions.
“With its rich experience and world-leading, innovation-driven tech, CISDI is able to provide solid support for Tata Steel’s new round of transformations.
“Our systematic solutions and core products are always focussed on enhancing an enterprise’s cost competitiveness. TATA’s visit to us signifies our strong existing relationship and our shared desire to commence a new stage of co-operation.”
Expressing his pleasure at meeting again with the CISDI team, Mr Gupta introduced Tata Steel’s Indian and global development plans.
The importance of CISDI’s equipment, product and service contributions were discussed and would play in multiple Tata projects. “Carrying forward our partnership, Tata is expecting CISDI’s new tech and products to play a role in our global business. We will create a new-round of deeper co-operation and partnership,” he said.
CISDI showcased its latest tech and product developments for systematic optimisation, intelligent manufacturing, energy conservation, environmental protection, green low-carbon tech to Gupta’s delegation.
Before departing, the Tata team were shown around CISDI’s research institutes, core equipment manufacturing plants and reference project sites.

This is what I discovered. That you're partially right. That this particular blast furnace which you're claiming was designed & commissioned by that Chinese company , was actually co designed by a Luxembourg based 150 year old Iron & Steel consultancy & EPC contractor by the name of Paul Wurth.
Tata Steel Kalinganagar steel plant
Tata Steel Kalinganagar steel plant, also known as TSK, is a blast furnace-basic oxygen furnace (BF-BOF) steel plant operating in Kalinganagar, Odisha, India.www.gem.wiki
Here's a whole series of articles on the same.
The best part is neither Tata Steel nor the Chinese company or Paul Wurth makes the point clear that this was a JV in terms of design & execution nor does Tata Steel ever mention the contractors involved in the project which I find strange.
Normally it's a practice to acknowledge the contributions of all the agencies involved in this mammoth undertaking.

Thank you for sharing,
But I didn't find it in your post about Paul Wurth was involved in the design and construction of Kalinganagar blast furnace 2. The records of,
Wiki sometimes makes mistakes.
Paul Wurth is involved in another blast furnace
Paul Wurth contracted for Jindal blast furnace project in India
Indian steelmaker Jindal Stainless has awarded German plant builder SMS group with the contract to build a new blast furnace at its Kalinganagar unit in…www.steeltimesint.com
Indian steelmaker Jindal Stainless has awarded German plant builder SMS group with the contract to build a new blast furnace at its Kalinganagar unit in India. The blast furnace will have a production capacity of 2Mt/yr of hot metal and will serve both existing downstream steelmaking facilities, as well as future ones.
The contract for the equipment, to be designated Blast Furnace Number 1, was signed between SMS group company Paul Wurth and Jindal Stainless Limited (JSL) in November 2021. The scope of agreed work includes the blast furnace, hot blast stoves, a dry gas cleaning plant, a pulverized coal injection and an INBA® slag granulation plant, to be supplied on an engineering and procurement basis.
Did you miss this article ? Paul Wurth is an SMS group company .Based on the evidence so far,
Paul Wurth - Kalinganagar Blast Furnace 1
CISDI--Kalinganagar blast furnace 2.
Please correct me if I'm wrong
Did you miss this article ? Paul Wurth is an SMS group company .
Here's a whole series of articles detailing Paul Wurth / SMS involvement with Tata Steel over the years .
Yes you're right.I've seen it all,
My conclusion is again:
Paul Wurth - Kalinganagar Blast Furnace 1
CISDI--Kalinganagar blast furnace 2.
Seems like was its Max Dhandhoo here that prevented them sourcing within from HECLtd, L&T or even from within like Tata Sponge?
