Tata Steel ends 'legacy steelmaking' at Britain's largest steelworks

Tata Steel-owned Port Talbot plant in South Wales hit a significant milestone on Monday when its Blast Furnace 4 ceased operations after over 100 years, marking an end of "legacy" steelmaking as the UK's largest steelworks transitions towards greener steelmaking. Steelmaking at the site is now set to resume in 2027-2028 as part of a British government-backed investment programme of around GBP 1.25 billion in Electric Arc Furnace-based steelmaking, using UK-sourced scrap steel. The Mumbai-headquartered steel giant said it is looking ahead to a brighter, greener future for the historic site and sustaining more than 5,000 jobs. "I am deeply conscious how difficult today is for everyone associated with our business. Throughout this transition, we are doing everything possible to minimise the impact on all those who are affected by the changes we are making, Rajesh Nair, CEO of Tata Steel UK, said in a statement. Today marks a significant event in the history of iron and steelmaking in

Tata Steel on Monday said Odisha would emerge as the company's single-largest investment destination after the phase-II expansion of its Kalinganagar plant from 3 million tonnes per annum to 8 mtpa. The steel major has invested Rs 27,000 in phase-II of the Kalinganagar plant expansion, and the company is on the verge of commissioning its expanded capacity at the unit, it said in a release.

Should build manufacturing economy greener than China's: Tata Steel CEO

India should build a manufacturing economy which is greener than China's, with a holistic approach that involves both the government and the private sector, Tata Steel CEO T V Narendran said on Wednesday. While addressing a panel discussion at AIMA Convention here, Narendran stressed the need to make the transition to a green manufacturing economy at a fast pace, else India would lose market share. "Unlike China which built a large manufacturing economy and now is trying to make it green, India can build a large manufacturing economy which is greener than the one that China built over the last 20-30 years," he said while replying to a question on the energy transition from fossil fuel to a cleaner future driven by two sectors cement and steel. "So that's an opportunity for India. It is also a risk for India. If India does not make the transition fast enough, we will find that large economic blocks like the US, Europe and China have already made the transition and India gets locked o

Moody's maintains stable outlook for Tata Steel, expects improved earnings

Moody's Rating on Wednesday said it has maintained a stable outlook on Tata Steel, expecting the domestic steel major to improve its earnings over the next two financial years. In a report, Moody's said it expects Tata Steel's consolidated EBITDA to be around Rs 290 billion in fiscal ending March 2025 and Rs 380 billion in fiscal 2026, from Rs 241 billion in 2023-24. "The rating affirmation and stable outlook reflect our expectation that the structural improvement in Tata Steel's earnings over the next two years will mitigate the risks associated with new state taxes on mining activities in India and developments at its operations in Europe, amid challenges in the broader steel sector," Hui Ting Sim, a Moody's Ratings Assistant Vice President and Analyst, said. Its forecast assumes that Tata Steel's India operations will generate EBITDA per tonne of Rs 14,700-Rs 15,300 in FY25 and FY26 before state mining taxes, which aligns with the company's 8-year average earnings. Further, the

British govt allocates funds to support Tata Steel's decarbonisation

The British government said it has begun supporting those affected by Tata Steel UK's decarbonisation process with the release of an initial GBP 13.5 million of funding, also available to affected workers for them to retrain or acquire new skills for the employment market.

At a meeting last week, the board discussed how the funding will be allocated, monitored and evaluated to ensure value for the taxpayer. This funding is an important step towards supporting workers affected by Tata Steel's transition and businesses in the wider supply chain, said Jonathan Reynolds, UK Business and Trade Secretary.

Tata Steel, Welspun jointly develop hydrogen-compliant grade steel pipes

Tata Steel and Welspun Corp have jointly developed hydrogen-compliant grade steel pipes for transportation of the gaseous hydrogen, a statement said on Friday.
