Trading begins
Started trading metals and metal scrap, building the first direct counterparty relationships in international markets.
About us
A decade in metal trade, built into a company.
TMA Global started as a metals and metal scrap trading operation in 2012. In 2022 it was formally incorporated as TMA Global Private Limited — the same trading relationships, now inside a registered corporate structure handling over 15,000 tonnes of material a year.
Our story
2012 to today
The business began in 2012, trading metals and metal scrap and building direct relationships with suppliers in international markets. Growth came from repeat counterparties rather than volume chasing — the same yards and traders coming back because material arrived as specified. Our longest client relationship is now in its eighth year.
In 2022 the operation was incorporated as TMA Global Private Limited, bringing formal governance, a registered corporate identity and the compliance footing that larger international counterparties expect.
Today we import over 15,000 tonnes of aluminium scrap and alloy ingots a year from Asia, Africa, North America and Australia, clear it through Mumbai and Kolkata, and supply Indian smelters, foundries and mills. We remain headquartered in Sector-62, Noida — with a confidential sourcing practice running alongside the import desk.

Operations
We handle the material ourselves
Plenty of trading companies never touch what they sell. We do. TMA Global operates its own warehouse facility with a 15-strong material handling team, and every consignment is inspected and segregated on arrival before it goes out to a customer.
That matters more in scrap than in most commodities. A container declared as one ISRI grade can arrive carrying something else, and the buyer only finds out at the furnace. Handling material ourselves is how we make sure that doesn't become your problem.
- Own warehouse and yard facility
- 15-person material handling team
- 6-person sourcing desk covering four origin regions
- Consignments cleared through Mumbai and Kolkata ports
How we work
Principles behind every trade
Metal trading runs on trust that is earned shipment by shipment. These are the things we do not compromise on.
Discretion
Enquiries — especially sourcing briefs — are handled on a need-to-know basis. Client identity and intent stay private, which is the entire point for buyers moving on something sensitive.
Direct relationships
We deal with overseas suppliers directly rather than routing purchases through layers of brokers. Fewer hands on a consignment means fewer places for a specification or a price to drift.
Regulatory compliance
Every cross-border shipment is handled inside India's foreign trade policy and customs framework, with documentation prepared correctly the first time.
Registration & standing
Registered, licensed and accountable
TMA Global Private Limited is a registered Indian private limited company. We hold a valid Importer-Exporter Code (IEC) issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade and are GST-registered, operating in accordance with India's foreign trade policy and customs regulations on every shipment we handle.
Specific registration and licence numbers — CIN, IEC and GSTIN — are shared directly with trade and sourcing counterparties during onboarding, rather than published openly.
