which can influence our performance over the long term. Competition within the industry

the Companys operations.
In light of these challenges, we remain committed to implementing strategic measures

FUTURE OUTLOOK
Indias domestic steel industry is poised for strong growth in the coming years, with a
projected annual growth rate of 7.5% in the current financial year, reaching an estimated
128.85 million tonnes (mt) in demand. The Indian Steel Association (ISA) estimates that
domestic steel demand was at 119.86 mt in the fiscal year 2022-23. Looking ahead, the
demand is expected to continue its upward trajectory, increasing by 6.3% to reach 136.97
mt in the subsequent financial year 2024-25, according to the ISAs projections.
This growth is driven by several factors, including the significant momentum in
infrastructure spending and sustained growth in urban consumption. These forces are
expected to propel the steel industrys expansion and result in increased demand for steel
products within the country.
The positive outlook for domestic steel demand is an encouraging sign for the Indian
steel industry, showcasing its resilience and potential for further expansion. With
infrastructure development and urbanization remaining key priorities for the nations
economic progress, the steel industry is well-positioned to play a pivotal role in
supporting these vital initiatives.
In this context, our company is also expected to perform well in the coming years.
However, it is important to acknowledge that market dynamics, including the balance of
demand and supply for our products, may impact our performance. Nevertheless, we are
