JSW Steel’s consolidated crude steel production increased 5pct YoY to 7.27 mln tons in Q2 FY27 from 6.95 mln tons a year earlier, according to the company’s latest production update. Production also rose 10pct QoQ from 6.59 mln tons in Q1 FY27.
Indian operations produced 7.07 mln tons, up 5pct YoY from 6.71 mln tons and 11pct QoQ from 6.35 mln tons. Production at JSW Steel USA – Ohio declined to 200,000 tons from 240,000 tons in both Q1 FY27 and Q2 FY26.
Capacity utilization across JSW Steel’s Indian operations stood at 88pct during the quarter. In September 2026, utilization improved to around 90pct as Blast Furnace No. 3 (BF3) at its Vijayanagar plant gradually ramped up following a capacity upgradation shutdown.
Consolidated crude steel production reached 13.86 mln tons in H1 FY27, up 4pct YoY.
Previous-year figures have been adjusted following the transfer of the steel business undertaking of Bhushan Power and Steel Ltd. (BPSL) to JSW-JFE Steel Ltd. in March 2026. Production from the transferred business has therefore been excluded from the corresponding previous-year figures.
JSW Steel’s combined crude steel production capacity currently stands at 37.9 mln tons per year, including 4.5 mln tons through its JSW-JFE Steel joint venture. The company plans to increase total capacity to 54.8 mln tons per year over the next four years.
