The rating agency -- India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) in its latest report has said that the steel demand is expected to grow in the range of 9-12 per cent during the ongoing 2024-25 fiscal. It stated the demand will be supported by steady growth in the end-user industries such as automobile and infrastructure sectors.
The agency further said that it expects the global steel demand to be steady with some moderation in China demand due to its transition to low carbon initiatives and moderate demand from the European Union (EU) but supported by growth in emerging economies such as India.
Rohit Sadaka, Director and Head, Materials and Diversified Industrials at Ind-Ra, said Raw material and finished goods prices are expected to be range-bound on a moderate recovery in global demand. Domestic players are likely to see stable credit metrics, due to higher profitability and improved operating cash flows amid debt-led capex.
