Tata Steel is focused on ramping up Kalinganagar expansion to 8 million tonnes capacity and boosting margins through better product mix by selling more value-added steel instead of commodity-grade products. The company is actively expanding through projects like Kalinganagar Phase II, a new electric arc furnace in Ludhiana, and a Combi Mill in Jamshedpur as part of its strategy to reach 40 MTPA steel capacity in India, with ₹15,000 crore capex earmarked for FY2025-26.

Q3FY26 profit soared multifold to Rs 2,730 crore driven by 14% surge in domestic delivery volumes marking a first with over six million tonnes.
