What the record says.
JSW Steel reported Q1 FY25 consolidated revenue of INR 42,943 crore and EBITDA of INR 5,510 crore (13% margin), with PAT at INR 867 crore. Performance was impacted by plant shutdowns at Dolvi and BPSL, inventory losses, and one-offs, though domestic sales grew 14% YoY to 5.3 million tons. The company achieved its highest-ever VASP share at 64%. Management expects improved volumes in Q2 as shutdowns are behind, with new capacities at Vijayanagar and BPSL ramping up by Q3. Raw material costs (coking coal down $23-28/ton, iron ore softer) should support margins despite soft steel prices. Key risk: rising imports from China and FTA countries without trade barriers could pressure domestic pricing.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management reaffirmed annual production and sales targets despite Q1 disruptions.
- Capital expenditure guidance for the full year, including expansions and mining payments.
- Benefits from lower input costs expected to improve steel spreads in Q2.
- Blast furnace and SMS at Vijayanagar commissioning by end-July/August; BPSL phase two ramp-up by Q3.
Risks flagged
- Imports up 27% YoY in Q1; management raised concern about lack of trade measures making India a soft target.
- Ohio and Texas combined EBITDA loss of $2.6 million due to HRC price decline from $900 to $720/ton.
- Land clearance issues with government; approvals expected during the year but timeline uncertain.
- Analyst questioned rationale for transferring asset to JSW Infra; management defended capital allocation but savings will be shared.
Key quotes
- India remains a bright spot among major global economies and is a multi-decadal growth opportunity.
- We are in discussion, and we would expect the government to take some steps towards this.
- Our focus on value-added and special products across sectors and segments continued to bear fruit.
