T V Narendran, Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director, Tata Steel said, “Global operating environment remained complex, with key regions facing subdued growth. Macro-economic conditions in China continued to weigh on commodity prices including steel. In India, steel demand continued to improve but domestic prices were under pressure due to cheap imports.”
“Despite this, Tata Steel has delivered broadly consistent performance. Among business verticals, automotive deliveries were aided by growth in hi-end products,” he said.
