The analysis
JSW Steel reported ₹696 cr, ₹1,473 cr and ₹696.32 crore for FY25. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Against that, the stock is +2.1% on the day at ₹1,241.30, and has returned +0.3% over three months. It sits 7% below its 52-week high. The metals & mining sector has moved -3.8% over the same period, so JSW Steel is running 4.1 points ahead of its peers.
For JSW Steel, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the metals & mining peer set alongside it.
