o ‘Branded Products & Retail’ segment deliveries increased by around 3% QoQ and 6% YoY. This was driven by best ever 2Q sales of well-established brands – Tata Tiscon, Tata Steelium and Tata Astrum.

▪ Tata Steel Europe liquid steel production for the quarter stood at 1.99 mn tons, up 11% QoQ but was down YoY.
