Mumbai, February 10, 2026: JSW Steel Limited reported consolidated crude steel production of 24.75 lakh tonnes for January 2026, reflecting a 2 percent year-on-year decline compared with 25.18 lakh tonnes produced in January 2025.
Production Performance Overview
The marginal decline at the consolidated level was largely driven by lower output at overseas operations, even as domestic production remained broadly stable.Crude Steel Production (Lakh Tonnes)

India Operations
Crude steel production at Indian operations was marginally higher on a year-on-year basis. However, capacity utilisation was impacted due to the ongoing shutdown of Blast Furnace 3 at the Vijayanagar plant, which has been under upgradation since September 2025.- Capacity utilisation excluding Blast Furnace 3 stood at around 93 percent for the quarter
- Including Blast Furnace 3 capacity, utilisation was approximately 85 percent
- The upgraded furnace is expected to be commissioned by the end of Q4 FY26
US Operations
Production at the Ohio facility in the United States declined sharply during the month due to a scheduled outage for caster upgrades, which ran from December 15, 2025 to January 11, 2026. This led to a significant drop in output compared with the same period last year.About the Company
