JSW Steel Q4 FY26 Results

Shares of JSW Steel came into focus after the company reported its Q4 FY26 results.

JSW Steel produced 30.14 million tonnes of crude steel in FY26, which is 8% higher than the previous year, showing steady growth in its operations.

During the year, the company upgraded its Salem plant by adding new equipment, which increased its capacity from 1.0 to 1.15 million tonnes per year starting March 2026.

At the same time, one of its key units, Blast Furnace-3 at Vijayanagar, has been shut since September 2025 for an upgrade. This temporary shutdown affected overall production and capacity utilisation. Even with this impact, the company managed strong utilisation levels, with around 92% utilisation excluding the shutdown unit and about 87% when including it.

In the fourth quarter of FY26, JSW Steel produced 7.49 million tonnes. Utilisation remained strong during the quarter as well, at about 96% excluding the shutdown unit and 87% including it.
