Amarendu Prakash, SAIL Chairman, said, "In the face of a challenging steel market characterized by declining prices and an influx of cheap imports, SAIL has managed to achieve better EBITDA during the Q3FY25 compared to the corresponding period last year.

We remain steadfast in our commitment to boost production and enhance cost efficiency, while simultaneously further exploring and adopting greener technologies. We expect that with appropriate interventions, the issue of cheap imports will be addressed and the government's drive on infrastructure development will bode well for the domestic steel industry while driving the demand further."
