This growth was broad-based, with sales rising across all product categories.

On the production front, SAIL delivered its best-ever crude steel output at 19.43 MT and saleable steel production at 19.176 MT, surpassing all previous records. Operational excellence was further demonstrated through improved efficiency parameters, reinforcing the company’s commitment to sustainable and competitive steelmaking.

Achieving record supplies of 1.25 MT to Indian Railways, alongside all-time high long rail production from the Universal Rail Mill, highlights operational excellence and strategic contribution to India’s rail expansion.
