T V Narendran, chief executive officer & managing director: 'Tata Steel has demonstrated robust profitability across geographies despite volatile global macro conditions and heightened uncertainty.

The strong improvement in our 1Q performance on QoQ as well as YoY basis was driven by an increase in our net steel realisations and the planned cost-take outs. In India, our large distribution network with 25,000-plus dealers & distributors and our focus on delivering customer requirements helped us in selling higher value-added products and in creating value from the new facilities we commissioned.

The volume ramp up at Kalinganagar is progressing smoothly and within six months of the start-up of the continuous annealing line facility, we have been successful in receiving grade approvals for high strength and ultra-high strength steel.

Tata Steel now stands at par with global leaders in providing next generation lightweighting solutions and catering to advanced mobility applications. We are also leveraging the growing digital marketplace by expanding presence through e-commerce platforms such as Aashiyana and DigECA. The Gross Merchandise Value through these platforms now stands at Rs 5,400 crores on annualised basis, an increase of 52% YoY.

Our mining operations complement steelmaking by providing secure and reliable supply of raw materials. I am happy to share that our Noamundi Iron ore mine was adjudged with 7-star rating by the Ministry of Mines for scientific and sustainable mining, one of only three such mines in India.

In UK, we recently had the groundbreaking ceremony for the EAF at Port Talbot which marks yet another milestone in our journey to become a sustainable green steel operations. In Netherlands, our liquid steel production was 1.7 million tons and was close to rated capacity and performance was aided by favourable sales mix and higher realisations in the downstream business.

The company offers a broad range of steel products including a portfolio of high value-added downstream products such as hot rolled, cold rolled, coated steel, rebars, wire rods, tubes and wires.
