Net profit after tax (PAT) stood at ₹770.64 crore for Q2 FY27, representing an 8.67% contraction compared to ₹843.80 crore recorded in Q1 FY27, weighed down by higher raw material and operating costs.
Crude steel production held steady sequentially at 2.40 million tonnes despite seasonal monsoon disruptions, while finished steel sales volume increased by 6% quarter-on-quarter to 2.38 million tonnes, supported by inventory liquidation.
Average selling prices (ASP) improved sequentially, bolstered by a higher proportion of flat steel products in the overall sales mix and lower TMT sales within the long products category.
Profit before tax (PBT) for the quarter came in at ₹1,084.41 crore, down 10.00% from ₹1,204.96 crore in Q1 FY27, reflecting cost pressures from coking coal and freight expenses.

04 · Why it moved
Why the quarter looked the way it did
What drove revenue
Consolidated steel sales volume rose 6% sequentially to 2.38 million tonnes, aided by inventory liquidation during the quarter.

What drove margins
