Domestic steel sector still in recovery mode post-Covid: Tata Steel CEO

The steel sector in the country is still in recovery mode after the Covid pandemic, Tata Steel CEO and MD T V Narendran said on Monday. He said demand for steel will continue to grow, backed by the government's focus on infrastructure development. This (2023) has been good year for the steel sector in India, even though it was a challenging period globally, Narendran said here. The recovery of the steel industry is still continuing post the global pandemic. In fact, we recovered well due to good handling of micro-economy by the RBI, and the investment that has been made for infrastructure development, he said at a New Year programme here.
