JSW Steel reported consolidated Crude Steel production for the month of February'26 at 23.66 lakh tonnes.
Blast Furnace 3 (BF3) at Vijayanagar is under shutdown for upgradation of capacity since September 2025, impacting Crude Steel production at Indian operations level, resulting -1% YoY during February'26. Excluding BF3 production from last year's base, YoY volumes grew ~8% driven by full ramp-up of JVML operations.
The capacity utilisation for Indian operations for the month excluding BF3 capacity was at ~97% and including BF3 capacity was at 88%.
Production at USA Ohio operations was lower due to ramping up of operations after caster upgrades in January 2026 and extreme weather conditions due to winter storm.
