Where the domestic volumes came from

• Automotive & Special Products: best-ever second-quarter volumes of ~1.1 million tons, up 9% QoQ and 19% YoY, helped by the ramp-up of Continuous Annealing and Galvanising lines at Kalinganagar and the Combi mill at Jamshedpur.

• Thailand: saleable steel production of 0.32 million tons and deliveries of 0.31 million tons; deliveries were marginally lower QoQ, primarily due to heavy rains in September 2026.
