JSW Steel’s stock experienced a modest rise of 1.05 per cent, following the company’s announcement of a 16 per cent year-on-year increase in consolidated net profit for the fourth quarter of FY25. The steel major reported a net profit of ₹1,503 crore, up from ₹1,299 crore in the same period last year, surpassing market expectations. 

Despite a 3 per cent decline in revenue from operations to ₹44,819 crore, the company’s operational efficiency and cost control measures led to an EBITDA of ₹6,378 crore, yielding an EBITDA margin of 14.2 per cent.
