Tata Steel has
started FY2027 on a strong note, reporting an 11 per cent year-on-year increase
in both crude steel production and domestic deliveries in India during the
first quarter, driven by higher output at its Jamshedpur and Kalinganagar plants
and healthy demand across key customer segments.
In a provisional
operational update filed with the BSE and NSE on Wednesday, the company said
crude steel production in India rose to 5.82 million tonnes in the April-June
quarter, while deliveries increased to 5.17 million tonnes. The growth was
supported by an enriched product mix and strong performance across its
automotive, branded retail and industrial businesses.
Tata Steel said its Automotive & Special Products and Branded Products & Retail businesses recorded their highest-ever first-quarter volumes, aided by strong demand for value-added steel products. The company also reported record quarterly volumes in its tubes and tinplate businesses, while gross merchandise value through its digital platforms, Aashiyana and DigECA, surged 61 per cent year-on-year to ₹2,200 crore.
Overseas, Tata Steel Netherlands produced 1.55 million tonnes of liquid steel and delivered 1.40 million tonnes during the quarter, with operations impacted by the temporary shutdown of its Direct Sheet Plant. In the UK, deliveries stood at 0.48 million tonnes as the company continued downstream processing while progressing with the installation of its proposed electric arc furnace at Port Talbot.
