T V Narendran, chief executive officer & managing director, said, “Our global operating environment continues to be shaped by tariffs, geopolitical shifts and policy divergence. Steel markets were impacted by elevated finished steel exports from China, which at 119 million tons surpassed the 2015 peak. Against this backdrop, Tata Steel delivered a strong performance in this quarter, with India crude steel production rising 12% while deliveries grew faster at 14% YoY, surpassing the 6 million tons mark in a quarter for the first time.
Automotive volumes grew 20% YoY, while our retail vertical gained further momentum.

Within the downstream portfolio, our tubes and wires businesses delivered their best-ever quarterly performance, supported by capacity additions, a richer product mix and dominant share in high-value infrastructure projects.
Looking ahead, the proposed 4.8 MTPA expansion at NINL and the 0.75 MTPA EAF at Ludhiana will significantly enhance our long products portfolio. At the same time, our strategic partnership in Maharashtra will fortify raw material needs beyond 2030 and help cater to the growing demand in western and southern India. In our overseas operations, deliveries stood at 0.52 million tons in the UK and 1.40 million tons in the Netherlands. Supportive policy frameworks are vital to transition to a more sustainable operating model. While the recent progress in Europe has supported sentiment, the UK market continues to be depressed, and the quota framework needs to be revised to reflect underlying market conditions.”
Koushik Chatterjee, executive director and chief financial officer, said, “For the nine months ended 31st December 2025, EBITDA margin improved by around 300 bps YoY, reflecting strong operational execution and sustained cost discipline. Our cost transformation program, focused on multiple levers including operating KPIs, supply chain efficiencies and procurement, has delivered savings of around Rs 3,000 crore for the quarter and around Rs 8,600 crore for the first nine months of the financial year.
During the quarter, consolidated EBITDA was Rs 8,309 crore, translating to a margin of around 15%. In India, domestic steel prices were at multiyear lows weighing on the steel spot spreads. Despite this, our India operations delivered an EBITDA margin of ~23% aided by value led growth and cost optimisation. Both in UK and Netherlands, volumes moderated on QoQ basis. UK performance was adversely impacted by subdued demand dynamics while the Netherlands delivered an EBITDA of euro 55 million. Overall, operating cash flows before capex were Rs 10,345 crore for the quarter. Our consolidated Net debt declined to Rs 81,834 crore.
Our group liquidity remains strong at Rs 44,062 crore, which includes cash & cash equivalents of Rs 10,765 crore. In India, we remain focused on volume growth, investments in downstream and strengthening our raw material linkages. UK market conditions continue to be pressured by subdued demand, while policy interventions are taking longer than anticipated to materialise.
We are closely monitoring the situation and the evolving tariff framework and CBAM in EU, which are pivotal for rebalancing EU market dynamics. We remain focused on prioritising, optimising and sequencing our capital allocation to balance investment needs with returns, while maintaining financial discipline and long term value creation for stakeholders.”

Global Markets:
European market advanced as investors are awaited for the earnings report from UniCredit.
Asian markets advanced on Monday, led by a surge in Japanese stocks following Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s historic landslide election victory.
The ruling Liberal Democratic Party captured a two-thirds supermajority in the 465-seat lower house, public broadcaster NHK reported.
A decisive win for Takaichi could be the “best outcome” for markets over the medium term, as strategic investments and tax reform bolster equities, said Sree Kochugovindan, media report said.
Japanese stocks have hit several highs over the past few months, driven by the so-called 'Takaichi trade' as markets expect the prime minister’s economic policies — seen as growth‑focused continuation of Abenomics — to boost equities, while weakening the yen as she pushes for a looser monetary policy and higher government spending.
U.S. President Donald Trump congratulated Takaichi on her victory in a TruthSocial post.
