— 1 earlier story on Steel Authority Of India Ltd. →What's new
- Crude steel output of 4.76 MT and saleable steel of 4.52 MT are broken down by plant.
- Domestic sales hit 4.11 MT; exports negligible at 0.06 MT.
- Debt-equity stands at 0.54x with gross debt of ₹31,970 cr.
Why this matters
The deck offers granular operational detail but no new strategic direction. With India's steel consumption growing 8%, SAIL's ability to lift capacity utilisation and control costs will determine margin trajectory.
What we're watching
- Capacity utilisation trends across SAIL's five integrated plants.
- Coking coal cost movements that could pressure EBITDA margins.
- Domestic steel price trends versus import competition.
