Q4 FY25 Earnings: Profit Up 16% YoY to ₹1,501 crore Despite Revenue Dip

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024–25, JSW Steel reported a consolidated net profit of approximately ₹1,501 crore, which marked a year-on-year increase of around 16 percent. This growth in profit came despite a slight dip in the company's total revenue from operations, which stood at ₹44,819 crore, down by about 3 percent compared to the same quarter last year. The company was able to maintain profitability due to improved operating margins and lower input costs, especially for raw materials like iron ore and coal. These cost efficiencies helped offset the effects of declining steel prices in certain global and regional markets.

During the quarter, the company’s operating EBITDA stood at ₹6,378 crore, supported by a stable performance in domestic steel sales and better plant utilization rates. The total steel production for Q4 reached 7.63 million tonnes, up 12 percent year-on-year, while total sales were recorded at 7.49 million tonnes, a rise of 11 percent. Notably, domestic steel sales surged by 30 percent, reaching 6.72 million tonnes. This was driven by robust demand from key sectors such as construction, automotive, capital goods, and infrastructure. Exports remained at a stable level, contributing around 8 percent of total Indian volumes.

Despite revenue pressures, JSW Steel focused on strengthening its operational performance and sustaining its momentum through internal efficiencies. The quarter also included a one-time charge of ₹44 crore, which had minimal impact on the company’s net result. The financial results reflected the company’s adaptability in managing market fluctuations and leveraging its scale to control costs. As the company moves into the next fiscal year, it plans to continue investing in capacity expansion, backward integration, and new technologies, while also remaining cautious of global steel demand trends and price volatility.
