TV Narendran, Managing Director, Tata Steel, recently said the domestic economy and steel demand have been improving thanks to the accommodative policies, government spending and relaxation in mobility restrictions. A week after that earlier blog post on inflation, I wrote, “Recently, nominal interest rates have been rising faster than inflation creating a headwind for the gold price. “Even after the increase in price, domestic steel is at a discount to both the landed cost of Chinese imports and the export price.
Domestic steel consumption last fiscal was down 6 per cent at 88 mt due to Covid-19. India’s finished steel consumption in March was up 25 per cent at 8.81 mt.
