Smelters that have been removed are the ones that failed to provide the evidence that meets the company definition of a smelter or refiner to CFSI or these may be no longer in operation as a smelter/refiner. Removal of smelters will impact the industries that have declared these smelters as valid smelters in their supply chain and they will need to go-back & revisit the smelters to declare the CMRT as per the revised version.

Smelters that have been added newly to the list have met CFSI requirement and have got certified. Few of the smelter names are corrected due to typographical error or to reflect as a legal entity.

Word of Caution: Companies under the purview of change, need to adopt the new and revised template provided by the CMRT for 2016 filing.
