July 9: Tata Steel India’s crude steel production during April-June quarter (Q1) of 2025-26 (FY26) stood at 5.26 million tons (mt), almost flat as compared to 5.27 mt during the year-ago period, according to a company release.

“The maintenance related shutdowns in Jamshedpur (reline of G Blast Furnace) as well as at Neelachal Ispat Nigam Limited (NINL), have led to decline in finished goods production adversely impacting our deliveries.

On a quarter-on-quarter basis, crude steel production during Q1 FY26 was down by 3.3 percent as compared to 5.44 mt during Q4 FY25.

Deliveries during Q1 FY26 stood at 4.75 mt, down by 3.8 percent as compared to 4.94 mt during the year-ago quarter.
