Event Summary

Steel reported a 15% year-on-year increase in crude steel production for May 2026, reaching 22.93 lakh tonnes. This growth was primarily due to the full operational capacity of its Dolvi unit, which had a blast furnace under maintenance in May 2025, and the complete ramp-up of JSW Steel — JSW Vijayanagar Metallics Limited (JVML) operations. Steel USA-Ohio also contributed with a 20% rise in output. The company's Indian operations achieved 98% capacity utilization, excluding Blast Furnace 3 at Vijayanagar, which is currently shut down for upgradation and expected to restart in June 2026. Steel is also undertaking significant expansion projects, including a mega integrated steel complex in India — Odisha and a joint venture with Steel for expanding the Bhushan Power and Steel facility.
