Tata Steel on Wednesday said it has further increased its daily oxygen supply limit to 800 tonnes a day to health centres for the treatment of COVID-19 patients.
On Monday, the company had informed about increasing the oxygen supply limit to 600 tonne a day to hospitals.
In a tweet, Tata Steel said, "Tata Steel has further increased supplies of liquid medical oxygen to 800 tonnes per day. Our endeavour to #FightAgainstCovid continues. We are closely working with GoI and states to address the demand and save precious human lives."
