JSW Steel production declines in May due to maintenance shutdown

JSW Steel reported a 4 per cent decline in its crude steel production in May at 20.98 lakh tonnes. The crude steel production was lower year-on-year mainly due to a planned maintenance shutdown for one of the Blast Furnaces at Dolvi. The Blast Furnace has been restarted in the first week of June. Capacity utilisation at its India operations stood at 86 per cent in May. JSW Steel is the flagship business of the diversified USD 24 billion size JSW Group.
