Steel stocks trade green on coking coal price revision
Commodity OnlineMUMBAI: A downward revision in the coking coal prices seems to be playing a key role in deciding the competitiveness of the steel companies in India.
Gujarat NRE Coke Ltd seems to be deciding the coking coal price at USD 120-140 per tonne for the new coal contract. In an interview with a private new channel Gujarat NRE Coke MD, Arun Kumar Jagatramka informed that the coal prices would be revised to a comparatively lower price, while the company’s margins would remain below expectations.
Widest range of financial loans, simple and convenient EMIs
The international coal scenario remains positive as the producers decide to lower prices. The price cut would come as a boon to the steel companies like Tata Steel Ltd, JSW Steel and Steel Authority of India Ltd (SAIL).
JSW Steel Ltd was trading at Rs. 180.25 up by 1.29%. The stock had touched its day’s high of Rs.184 in the early trading hours on the BSE. Similarly, Tata Steel Ltd, which was trading at Rs.157.45 up by 0.5% had touched its day’s high of Rs. 160.15 during the day.
