Visakhapatnam: Steel Maker Arcelor Mittal Nippon Steel India (AM/NS India) said in a statement on Thursday that it has produced a record 7.23 MT crude steel registering a growth of 5 per cent during the financial year 2019-2020.

Despite the challenging times, AMNS attained the record production volumes in the 2019-20 financial year.

The crude steel production has gone up to 7.23 MT compared to 6.92 MT registered in 2018-19.

Even in pellet production, it touched 11.63 MT during the period compared to 1.63 MT registered last fiscal.

According to CEO of AMNS Dilip Oommen, despite demand volatility, AMNS India made great strides to improve its overall performance and operational efficiency.
