Key Highlights:

. Tata Steel Standalone -

• o Production was marginally up in 3Q FY19 with steady plant utilization. Sales volume was lower due to seasonal headwinds, particularly in terms of softer Automotive demand, and inventory replenishment.

• o Automotive & Special products recorded a growth of 21% in Apr-Dec'18 period against an industry growth of 12% during the same period last year.

Tata Steel Europe -

• o Tata Steel Europe's year-on-year production was impacted by shutdowns for ongoing life extension upgradation program on one of Port Talbot's blast furnaces during Q3, because of which the furnace was out of operation for the entire quarter. Performance was also impacted by operational issues in Q3 in both of its main steelmaking locations of Umuiden and Port Talbot. Lower production volumes and adverse product mix will impact financial results.

• ▪ Tata Steel South East Asia -

  • o Production and sales volume were lower due to continued sluggishness in Singapore and Thailand markets. 1

Tata Steel BSL -

• o Production was in-line with 2Q FY19; Sales volume in 3Q FY19 was lower as 2Q FY19 sales volume included inventory sell-down. Sales was also affected due to softer demand in 3QFY19, mainly in automotive and appliance segments, and inventory replenishment.
