Tata Steel Posts Q4 Profit Of ₹2,431 Crore

“Results for the periods relating to current year include Tata Steel BSL starting May 18, 2018, hence not comparable with previous periods,” the steel firm said in a regulatory filing. Consolidated revenue came in at 42,423.86 crore in Q4FY19.

The board of the company recommended a dividend of 13 per fully paid equity share and 3.25 per partly paid equity share.

The dividend, if approved by the shareholders at the AGM, will be paid on and from July 23. Consolidated margin stood at 17.70 percent in Q4FY19. The company said that Q4 margin hit by lower realizations and input cost and uncertainty over trade environment is still a risk.

TV Narendran, CEO & Managing Director said, “Tata Steel continues to grow its footprint in India in terms of volumes, downstream capability and product portfolio. Our strategy of focusing on operational excellence, strong customer relationships, superior distribution network and brands is paying rich dividends. Despite subdued steel markets and weak growth in our key customer segments, this year our volumes in India grew by over 33 percent leading to a significant improvement in our overall profitability and cash flows. The proposed merger of Tata Steel BSL with Tata Steel will accelerate operational synergies and simplify our corporate structure.”
