Sail's ambitious capacity push faces a risk of oversupply
Mint Mumbai

Tempering expectations
Steel Authority of India Ltd (Sail) shares are down 11% over the past year, despite efforts to amplify capacity.
In its FY25 annual report this week, Sail reiterated its production capacity target of 35mtpa (million tonnes per annum) by FY31 from 20mtpa currently. That entails a total investment of ₹1 trillion. Peak spending of ₹10,000-15,000 crore is expected in FY28-FY29. But a risk of domestic oversupply looms, as competitors add capacity.
The start to FY26 was unexciting as Sail trimmed the year's sales volume guidance to 18.5mt (excluding NMDC Steel) from 19.2mt. This is just 3% higher than FY25's 17.9mt.

CHASING GAINS, MISSING OPPORTUNITIES: THE PSYCHOLOGY OF MARKET VOLATILITY
The Indian market in 2025 has had three chapters. It began with sharp volatility from valuation corrections and geopolitical uncertainty, then saw a recovery-led rally driven by strong financials, large-cap gains, and modest FII inflows over four months. Volatility has returned amid tariff worries and FII outflows. While unpredictable and unsettling, market swings are natural, especially in emerging markets like India. Recognising the psychological traps of volatility can help investors stay informed and maintain course.
