Steel stocks were trading with traction on the bourses, as the government in order to protect domestic industries from cheap imports, again extended the minimum import price (MIP) on 66 steel products for a period of two months. The 66 products include semi-finished products of iron or non-alloyed steel, flat-rolled products of different widths, bars and rods.

To guard domestic steel producers against cheap in-bound shipments, the government in February had imposed MIP, ranging between $341 to $752 per tonne, on 173 steel products for a period of six months.
The government in August decided to extend the minimum import price (MIP) on 66 steel products for a period of two months as against 173 items earlier.
Steel makers had asked the government to extend minimum import price (MIP) on certain products, saying its imposition has marginally improved the industry's viability after a long period of subdued prices.
