JSW Steel on Wednesday posted a 7 per cent growth in crude steel production on a standalone basis at 17.77 lakh tonne (LT) in April 2023.
The company had produced 16.67 LT steel during the same month last year, JSW Steel said in a statement.
In April 2023, the company said the production of its flat-rolled products rose 16 per cent to 13.92 LT from 12 LT a year ago.
However, its long-rolled products output fell 9 per cent to 3.21 LT from 3.54 LT in April 2022.
“Production of rolled long-products is lower due to planned capital shutdowns taken at Salem and Vijayanagar plant locations during April 2023,” it said.
