India–US Trade Tensions Rise Over Steel and Auto Tariffs NMDC Limited reports a 38% drop in Q4 FY24 consolidated net profit RINL to Raise $23 Million Through Land Sales Amid Crisis
Jindal Saw Limited, one of India’s key manufacturers of steel pipes and tubes, reported a 4% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025–26.
The company’s Q1 FY26 net profit fell despite registering modest revenue growth, signaling ongoing margin pressures driven by higher raw material and energy costs. The company attributed the dip to increased operational expenditures and fluctuations in input prices that offset top-line gains.
Revenue from operations saw a slight uptick, indicating stable demand across domestic and international markets. However, analysts note that softer export orders and tighter competition have weighed on profit margins in recent quarters.
Despite current challenges, Jindal Saw continues to invest in expanding its global footprint and product innovation, particularly in high-efficiency ductile iron and seamless pipe segments.
The management remains cautiously optimistic for the rest of FY26, citing a potential recovery in global infrastructure spending and gradual stabilization in commodity prices. However, inflationary pressures and sluggish global steel demand remain key risks.
As the steel sector navigates post-pandemic volatility, Jindal Saw’s performance reflects the broader industry’s balancing act between growth opportunities and cost control. Investors will be watching upcoming quarters closely for signs of recovery.
