Jindal Stainless cuts export forecast on Red Sea crisis, weaker EU, US demand
India's biggest stainless steel manufacturer hopes to ship out 10-12% of its estimated overall sales of over 2.1 million metric tons in 2023/24, down from its previous forecast of 15%, Abhyuday Jindal, managing director of Jindal Stainless, told Reuters in an interview. The company is exploring "new options" and a "variable freight model", Jindal said, as part of efforts to deal with the challenges posed by attacks launched by the Iran-allied Houthi militia on ships in the Red Sea. He did not give details of the options being weighed by his company.
