The Tata Steel Groups growth and globalisation strategy is driven by its business expansion while maintaining profitability and mitigating risks. The Tata Steel Group over the years has focused on enhancing raw material security and announced major joint ventures in various parts of the globe.

Tata Steels Indian operations are one of the most competitive assets in the global steel industry and therefore, capacity expansion in India is one of the key strategies for Tata Steel. The Indian operations draws its greatest strength and its competitive position as one of the lowest cost producers of steel in the world from the quality and yield of its raw material units. The mines have successfully offered raw material security and have partially insulated Tata Steel from the volatility of the global markets. The Company has, therefore, continuously modernised and expanded its raw material facilities right from the 1950s, when it had launched its two million tonne expansion programme.

In FY 2011-12, there were several best ever performances recorded by many units in the Steel Works of the Company:

Indian operations recorded its best ever production of Hot Metal, Crude Steel and Works Saleable Steel. Production was approximately 4% higher than in Financial Year 2010-11. Crude steel production at 7.1 million tonnes exceeded the nameplate capacity in a year, when the Indian steel industry was impacted on account of a paucity of raw materials and higher power and freight costs. Indian operations recorded its best ever sales of 6.6 million tonnes, exceeding the previous best of 6.4 million tonnes. Flat products sales registered a 5.6% increase, reaching 3.7 million tonnes. Sales in the Automotive segment crossed 1 million tonnes with highest-ever Skin Panel sales of 0.06 million tonnes.

With the newly institutionalised Corporate Quality assurance system, the Company achieved its best-ever Quality performance, with customer claims reducing by more than 40% over Financial Year 2010-11. Long products sales were at similar levels compared to the previous year, though the focus was to enrich the product mix by maximising downstream sales through conversion of semis. Leveraging the countrywide distribution network, in conjunction with tracking dealer inventory on a daily basis, led to a spurt in retail sales.

Therefore the India growth strategy remains a fundamental part of the long-term strategy of the Tata Steel Group.
