At the segment level, Tata Steel continues to be the preferred supplier for automotive steel, with a high share of business in new model launches. Tata Tiscon achieved best ever volumes and grew by 19% YoY to around 2.4 million tons. We have invested more than Rs 1,600 crores on R&D in the last 5 years, enabling us to become the first Indian steel supplier to have end-to-end capabilities in hydrogen transportation and to localize CP780 automotive grade, demonstrating our customer centricity.

While fixed costs have reduced by around 230 million, the benefit was not visible due to surging imports. In Netherlands, our deliveries were around 6.25 million tons and for the quarter were 1.75 million tons, highest in the last six years. The QoQ improvement in profitability at Netherlands includes efforts to reduce controllable costs while a transformation program to restore long term competitiveness has been launched in April 2025. This year also marked landmark achievement in the form of a century of mining at Noamundi and in FY2025, we mined around 40 million tons of iron ore across our mines in India.

This demonstrates the turnaround of the company which was closed at the time of acquisition almost three years ago. Operating cash flows after interest and adjustments improved by 37% or around Rs 4,800 crore YoY to Rs 17,700 crore, aided by working capital release of around Rs 3,600 crore.

Consolidated EBITDA margin was 100 bps higher on QoQ basis.
