Fatal blast at US steel's Clairton plant sparks doubts over its future
The fatal explosion last week at US Steel's Pittsburgh-area coal-processing plant has revived debate about its future just as the iconic American company was emerging from a long period of uncertainty. The fortunes of steelmaking in the US along with profits, share prices and steel prices have been buoyed by years of friendly administrations in Washington that slapped tariffs on foreign imports and bolstered the industry's anti-competitive trade cases against China. Most recently, President Donald Trump's administration postponed new hazardous air pollution requirements for the nation's roughly dozen coke plants, like Clairton, and he approved US Steel's nearly USD 15 billion acquisition by Japanese steelmaker Nippon Steel. Nippon Steel's promised infusion of cash has brought vows that steelmaking will continue in the Mon Valley, a river valley south of Pittsburgh long synonymous with steelmaking. We're investing money here. And we wouldn't have done the deal with Nippon Steel if we weren't absolutely sure that we were going to have an enduring future here in the Mon Valley, David Burritt, US Steel's CEO, told a news conference the day after the explosion. You can count on this facility to be around for a long, long time. Will the explosion change anything? The explosion killed two workers and hospitalised 10 with a blast so powerful that it took hours to find two missing workers beneath charred wreckage and rubble. The cause is under investigation. The plant is considered the largest coking operation in North America and, along with a blast furnace and finishing mill up the Monongahela River, is one of a handful of integrated steelmaking operations left in the US. The explosion now could test Nippon Steel's resolve in propping up the nearly 110-year-old Clairton plant, or at least force it to spend more than it had anticipated. Nippon Steel didn't respond to a question as to whether the explosion will change its approach to the plant. Rather, a spokesperson for the company said its commitment to the Mon Valley remains strong and that it sent technical experts to work with the local teams in the Clairton Plant, and to provide our full support. Meanwhile, Burritt said he had talked to top Nippon Steel officials after the explosion and that this facility and the Mon Valley are here to stay. US Steel officials maintain that safety is their top priority and that they spend USD 100 million a year on environmental compliance at Clairton alone. However, repairing Clairton could be expensive, an investigation into the explosion could turn up more problems, and an official from the United Steelworkers union said it's a constant struggle to get US Steel to invest in its plants. Besides that, production at the facility could be affected for some time. The plant has six batteries of ovens and two where the explosion occurred were damaged. Two others are on a reduced production schedule because of the explosion. There is no timeline to get the damaged batteries running again, US Steel said. Accidents are nothing new at Clairton Accidents are nothing new at Clairton, which heats coal to high temperatures to make coke, a key component in steelmaking, and produces combustible gases as byproducts. An explosion in February injured two workers. Even as Nippon Steel was closing the deal in June, a breakdown at the plant dealt three days of a rotten egg odour into the air around it from elevated hydrogen sulfide emissions, the environmental group GASP reported. The Breathe Project, a public health organisation, said US Steel has been forced to pay USD 57 million in fines and settlements since January 1, 2020 for problems at the Clairton plant. A lawsuit over a Christmas Eve fire at the Clairton plant in 2018 that saturated the area's air for weeks with sulfur dioxide produced a withering assessment of conditions there. An engineer for the environmental groups that sued wrote that he found no indication that US Steel has an effective, comprehensive maintenance programme for the Clairton plant. The Clairton plant, he wrote, is inherently dangerous because of the combination of its deficient maintenance and its defective design. US Steel settled, agreeing to spend millions on upgrades. Matthew Mehalik, executive director of the Breathe Project, said US Steel has shown more willingness to spend money on fines, lobbying the government and buying back shares to reward shareholders than making its plants safe. Will Clairton be modernised? It's not clear whether Nippon Steel will change Clairton. Central to Trump's approval of the acquisition was Nippon Steel's promises to invest USD 11 billion into US Steel's aging plants and to give the federal government a say in decisions involving domestic steel production, including plant closings. But much of the USD 2.2 billion that Nippon Steel has earmarked for the Mon Valley plants is expected to go toward upgrading the finishing mill, or building a new one. For years before the acquisition, US Steel had signalled that the Mon Valley was on the chopping block. That left workers there uncertain whether they'd have jobs in a couple years and whispering that US Steel couldn't fill openings because nobody believed the jobs would exist much longer. Relics of steelmaking's past In many ways, US Steel's Mon Valley plants are relics of steelmaking's past. In the early 1970s, US steel production led the world and was at an all-time high, thanks to 62 coke plants that fed 141 blast furnaces. Nobody in the US has built a blast furnace since then, as foreign competition devastated the American steel industry and coal fell out of favour. Now, China is dominant in steel and heavily invested in coal-based steelmaking. In the US, there are barely a dozen coke plants and blast furnaces left, as the country's steelmaking has shifted to cheaper electric arc furnaces that use electricity, not coal. Blast furnaces won't entirely go away, analysts say, since they produce metals that are preferred by automakers, appliance makers and oil and gas exploration firms. Still, Christopher Briem, an economist at the University of Pittsburgh's Centre for Social and Urban Research, questioned whether the Clairton plant really will survive much longer, given its age and condition. It could be particularly vulnerable if the economy slides into recession or the fundamentals of the American steel market shift, he said. I'm not quite sure it's all set in stone as people believe, Briem said.

Bad news for Ratan Tata's TCS after massive layoffs, IT giant loses Rs 5.66 lakh crore due to..., worst phase for company since...
TCS is undergoing its worst crisis since the 2008 recession. (File) TCS market cap: Amidst the backdrop of the controversy surrounding its decision to cut more than 12,000 jobs in the current fiscal year, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), India's largest IT services exporter, has witnessed a rout of its market cap, which slumped from Rs 16.57 lakh crore to Rs 10.93 lakh crore, a decrease of Rs 5.66 lakh crore. According to market analysts, TCS, the flagship company of the Tata Group, is going through it worst crisis since the 2008 recession, when it shares had fallen by 55 percent. TCS share prices have dipped 25 percent in 2025, and experts predict the current financial could be the worst in company's history if the downfall continues. Why TCS shares are falling? According to analysts, India's stock market has witnessed a turmoil over the past few months as foreign investors are withdrawing from the market in droves amid US President Donald Trump unleashing tariff war against India, and recently announcing 50% import duty on Indian exports. The IT industry, once considered a favorite for FIIs, is now witnessing a decline, with foreign investors reducing their stake in TCS from 12.35% in June 2024 to 11.48% in June 2025, which has resulted in the company's shares falling by over 25 percent in the current financial year. The Nifty IT index has fallen 25% so far this year, making it the worst-performing sector in the market as over half of the Rs 95,600 crore withdrawn from India by FIIs till July 2025 has come from IT stocks alone. Why mutual funds investment increased? Meanwhile, domestic mutual funds have raised their stake in TCS from 4.25% to 5.13%, making fresh purchases worth Rs 400 crore in the company, according to data. TCS' trailing PE declined from 41x to 20x, five-year CAGR stands at 8.5%, while stock CAGR is 6%, the data showed. Notably, India's IT sector has grown at a compounded annual rate of 12.5% over the last two decades, but has underperformed the Nifty over the last three to five years. TCS layoffs According to recent media reports, TCS is mulling to cut about 2 percent of its global workforce, which would result in over 12,000 TCS workers losing their jobs in the current financial year. The company's decision is being investigated, with Jefferies warning that TCS layoffs could result in a slowdown in execution in the near term and an increase in the workforce in the long term.

Corporate loan growth slows in April-June quarter as firms delay investments, shift to cheaper debt market
Corporate loan growth by domestic banks slowed down in the first quarter of FY26, as companies put off investment decisions. This was largely due to uncertainty around tariffs, weak demand that held back private capital spending, and a shift towards cheaper funding options in the corporate bond market. Additionally, many companies continued to reduce their debt levels, which further dampened loan demand. Between April and June 2025, bank lending to industries grew at the slowest pace in over three years, signalling muted credit demand from the corporate sector. According to RBI data, loans to industries — including micro, small, medium, and large enterprises — rose by 5.49 per cent year-on-year to Rs 39.32 lakh crore, marking the weakest growth since March 2022. In Q1 FY26, the country's largest lender, State Bank of India (SBI), reported a 5.7 per cent Y-o-Y growth in its corporate loan book, but saw a fall of 3 per cent on a Q-o-Q basis. Private sector lenders ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank posted Y-o-Y growth of 7.5 per cent and 1.7 per cent, respectively, in their corporate loan portfolios, but witnessed sequential declines of 1.4 per cent and 1.3 per cent, respectively. A banking analyst noted that this reflects a phase of growth without fresh investment in the economy. The industrial growth as measured by the Index of Industrial Production (IIP) slowed to 2 per cent in April-June 2025, compared to 4 per cent in the previous quarter. According to SBI chairman C S Setty, the tepid growth in the corporate loan book was mainly on account of delay in investment decisions by corporates due to uncertainties caused by the higher tariff announcement by US President Donald Trump in April this year, shift in borrowing from banks to other alternate sources and higher prepayments of loans by corporates. While state-run Bank of Baroda's corporate loan book expanded by 4.2 per cent Y-o-Y , it registered a sharp dip of 10.2 per cent Q-o-Q. Corporate advances of Union Bank of India and Bank of India rose 2.68 per cent and 4.49 per cent y-o-y, respectively, though their books declined 4.83 per cent and 1.5 per cent sequentially in April-June 2025 quarter. Canara Bank and Punjab National Bank's corporate book grew flat at 0.48 per cent and 1.1 per cent, respectively, on a Q-o-Q basis in June 2025 quarter. Bank of Baroda's chief economist Madan Sabnavis attributes weak credit demand from corporates to the slowdown in investments as companies await a revival in demand. The US President had initially announced to impose a 26 per cent tariff on imports of Indian goods, but later declared a 90-day pause, which resulted in corporates holding back on expansions and new investments. He subsequently doubled the tariff on India to 50 per cent. 'An important factor to consider is the uncertainty in terms of how these tariffs are going to play out and how quickly this is going to be addressed. Due to this uncertainty, a lot of investment decisions could be delayed and people will postpone their spending. This is the second order impact of tariffs,' Setty said during a press conference post the declaration of the Q1 FY26 results. Easing rates in the debt market following the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) 100 basis points (bps) reduction in the repo rate since February has prompted corporates to shift from banks to debt market instruments. 'Some large corporates are accessing the commercial paper (CP) market to replace working capital limits. This is expected because there is a good amount of liquidity (in the CP market). The rates are much more affordable (in the CP market) compared to borrowing from banks,' Setty said. The lender has seen working capital limit utilisation by corporates in his bank falling to 58 per cent from 62 per cent in Q1 FY25. Total funds raised through CP increased to Rs 4.51 lakh crore in April-June 2025 quarter, compared Rs 3.8 lakh crore in same period of FY25, and Rs 4.38 lakh crore in January-March 2025 quarter, according to Besides CPs, companies are also tapping the corporate debt market for cheaper funds compared to bank loans, which has impacted corporate loan growth of banks. In the first quarter of the current fiscal, corporates mobilised Rs 3.42 lakh crore through private placement of bonds, data from showed. 'We believe that funds raised through the bond market are being largely used by corporates to support ongoing business needs rather than for long-term capital investment,' said Saswata Guha, senior director, Financial Institutions (Banks), Fitch Ratings. With access to cheaper funds through CP and corporate bond markets, along with strong cash flows, domestic corporates have continuously reduced their debt, resulting in slower corporate credit growth. 'Corporates having strong cash flows are deleveraging. So, the (credit) demand is not that much because there is a deleveraging happening on the corporate book,' Bank of Baroda's managing director and CEO, Debadatta Chand, said during an analyst meet for the quarter ended June 2025. Lenders have also become prudent in lending to corporates as they do not want to overexpose themselves while expanding their corporate loan book. 'Banks are mindful of risk-return tradeoff and focus on risk-adjusted returns which makes them quite sensitive to pricing. They are also mindful of concentration risk embedded in a corporate exposure,' said Fitch Ratings' Guha. 'While lenders are trying to be more prudent in ensuring that their risk-adjusted returns on corporate exposure are justified, they can do so because retail and small business lending continues to grow healthy,' he said. Banks are hopeful of a stronger growth in corporate advances from the third quarter of the current fiscal. While SBI expects its corporate loan book to grow by 10 per cent in Q3 of FY26, Bank of Baroda is confident of achieving a 9-10 per cent growth in the segment during FY26. 'The shift (for funding from banks to the debt market) has happened, but I think these shifts keep happening. Once the rates stabilize on the bank side, they (corporates) will come back to utilization (of their working capital limits),' the SBI Chairman said. Setty said SBI has a robust visibility on the corporate loan pipeline in terms of proposals under discussion, and on sanctions which are yet to be disbursed. The bank has a total corporate loan book pipeline of Rs 7 lakh crore. For large-scale capex-led funding requirements, corporates will have to return to the banks, as the bond market alone will not be adequate to fulfill those needs, Guha said.
