SAIL Flags Chinese Steel Dumping Threat; Focuses on Mozambique Coal
Imagine a company called SAIL that makes steel.
They are worried about too much cheap steel coming from China, like a flood in the market that makes prices drop.
They're also concerned about new rules in Europe that might affect them.
SAIL is working hard to get coal from Mozambique, which is needed to make steel.
They plan to spend money on new projects but might face delays because they need permission to use land.
The company also made money last year, but it was slightly less than before.
SAIL identifies Chinese steel exports and European CBAM as key market risks.
Capacity expansions by private players erode market share.
SAIL plans ₹7500 crore capex in FY26 including decarbonisation drives.

SAIL recorded a turnover of ₹1,01,716 crore in FY25.
