Tata Steel shares fell over 5% in intraday trade after its Q4FY26 results, even as the company reported strong earnings growth and better operating performance. Analysts remained positive on the stock, supported by robust India demand, higher steel realisations, improved margins, and signs of recovery in the European business.

The company posted consolidated revenue of ₹63,270 crore, up 12.5% year-on-year, while EBITDA jumped 47% to ₹9,953 crore. Profit after tax rose 124% to ₹2,925.7 crore.

For the steel market, Tata Steel’s performance signals healthy domestic demand and improving steel sector sentiment despite near-term price volatility.
