About us
Who we are?
A New Delhi proprietorship built around one material: the coating inside a spent catalytic converter, and what it is actually worth.
The firm, and the forty years behind it
Shree Shyam Metals recycles spent catalytic converters. We collect them across India from registered vehicle scrapping facilities, converter traders, local dismantlers and OEM production waste; decan and mill them here; assay the material for platinum, palladium and rhodium; and supply it to refineries we hold contracts with in Europe, Korea and Japan. Last year that came to 1,45,006 units.
The firm under this name is a 2020 registration, but the work did not begin in 2020. The family behind it has traded metals for more than forty years, and that is where the habits came from: count it in, weigh it properly, and know what is in it before you put a number on it. Converters moved that habit onto a material whose whole value is invisible until somebody measures it.
Which is the entire proposition. A converter is settled on what its coating assays at, not on the badge of the car it came off. If a supplier does not accept our figure, an independent laboratory is appointed as umpire and its result settles the lot — ours does not.
It is a proprietorship run by Sanjay Kumar, with a team of up to ten people. It has been registered since 2020 and is a registered exporter. The registration numbers belong on the quotation and the invoice rather than on a public page, and we send them to you with the first of either.
Why does a supplier come back?
Measure before you quote
We do not put a price on a lot we have not assessed. Units are counted in, decanned, milled to a uniform powder and assayed, and the number we give is one that still holds when the refinery checks it at the other end.
Document as you go
A correctly classified tax invoice, the e-way bill, transport papers, lot photographs and the recycling certificate. Paperwork that arrives with the truck rather than a week later.
Let someone else settle it
Where a supplier does not accept our assay, an independent laboratory acts as umpire and its figure settles the lot. And if a consignment is not worth moving, we say so rather than collect it and work that out afterwards.
Who will you deal with?
Aman Gupta
Procurement & Sales Management
Aman looks after both sides of the trade: buying spent converters from the suppliers who send them to us, and selling the recovered material on. If you have a consignment to offer or want a quotation on a lot, he is usually the person you will speak to first.

Start with one consignment
Most of the suppliers we deal with regularly began with a single trial lot. Send the type and the count and it will be handled the same way the tenth one would be.
