Exclusive: Govt unlikely to review export duty on steel; Tata Steel, JSW Steel, SAIL shares fall

Steel shares were under pressure after Zee Business exclusively reported that government is unlikely to review export duty on steel and iron ore before the upcoming budget. Zee Business has learnt through top government sources that the decision has been taken in view of the ongoing Budget 2023 exercise.

The news is a big setback for steel companies as stocks of major steel companies were down.

According to sources, any big change related to duty is not on the cards ahead of the budget. This is because the government will have to make calculations on the amount that it may have to forego in the event of exemption and it will be difficult now to go ahead with the review.
