Exports accounted for around 7% of total revenue, with the company navigating a challenging global environment shaped by geopolitical conflicts and tariff uncertainties, resulting in trade disruptions. Despite this, the company delivered sustained export performance, while also maintaining focus on expanding into markets such as Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Germany, which continued to gain traction.

Supported by robust domestic demand and rising stainless steel adoption across sectors, we delivered healthy volume growth while continuing to strengthen our value-added portfolio and downstream capabilities.

Looking ahead, our focus will be on leveraging our capacity enhancement and downstream expansion to expanding applications, maintaining cost efficiencies, and manufacturing excellence, to achieve ~3.5 MTPA sales volume by FY29.

The domestic stainless steel industry continues to operate in a challenging environment caused by the Middle-East crisis and India's liberal trade policies. Concerns over cheap, substandard imports remains and on behalf of the industry, we continue to advocate for a strong policy framework to curb unfair imports and safeguard the long-term interests of the domestic stainless steel industry.'
