SAIL Reports Over Two-Fold Increase in Q1 Net Profit Amid Stable Revenue and Lower Production
Steel Authority of India Ltd (SAIL) reported a consolidated net profit of around Rs 1,640 crore for Q1 FY27, more than doubling from the previous year despite a slight decline in crude steel production to 4.76 million tonnes. Revenue remained steady at approximately Rs 26,245 crore, with expenses decreasing, contributing to improved profitability. The company attributed the profit rise to cost management, operational efficiencies, and stable domestic steel demand amid global uncertainties. SAIL plans to enhance production stability through scheduled maintenance and expects continued performance strengthening.
