    Jindal Stainless has revised its FY27 volume growth outlook to 4-6%, down from the previous 7-9% forecast, due to declining sales. Despite the downturn, the company reported an 11% rise in profits during the September quarter, driven by over 664,000 tonnes of steel sold, with exports comprising 11%. This adjustment reflects ongoing challenges in the market affecting their overall performance.

    Loading...×Mumbai: Jindal Stainless has cut its FY27 volume growth guidance to reflect the impact of the West Asian crisis but expects profitability to be higher than earlier estimates.

    The country's largest producer of stainless steel now expects 4-6% volume growth, down from the 7-9% that it had guided for at the start of the year.

    This is likely to be the lowest volume growth for the company in at least five years.

    "Our first quarter was badly disrupted, so we are revising the sales guidance downward," chief executive officer Tarun Khulbe said on a call.

        In the June quarter, Jindal Stainless' sales volume had seen an over 7% YoY decline.

        The New Delhi-based company saw an 11% year-on-year rise in its consolidated net profit to ₹898 crore for the September quarter. Of this, ₹116.41 crore was an exceptional gain, related to a tax provision and an Indonesian subsidiary.

        Net revenue for the quarter grew more than 18% on-year to ₹12,874 crore. Jindal Stainless sold 6,64,378 tonnes of steel during the quarter, up 2.5% compared to the previous year. Of this, 11% were exports.

        “The quarter marked a resilient recovery following the operational disruptions in Q1, which had been impacted by geopolitical situation and industrial gas availability constraints,” the company said in a statement. “Demand performance was underpinned by higher contributions from value-added products, along with momentum in the automotive and ornamental pipe & tube segments,” it said.

        Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the quarter stood at Rs 1,433 crore, up more than 3% on year, while the EBITDA made on each tonne of stainless steel was Rs 21,570.

        The company announced its earnings after market hours on Thursday, and its shares closed at 708.60 rupees on the BSE, down 3.4% from the previous close.

        The company’s board has approved the amalgamation of Chromeni Steels Limited, Rabirun Vinimay Private Limited, JSL Super Steel Limited and Jindal United Steel Limited into itself, with the objective of simplifying the group structure.
