The production at 5.68 MT was 3 percent down compared to 5.88 MT in the April-June period of the ongoing fiscal year.

"The drop in production is attributable mainly to extended maintenance shutdowns in JISPL, subdued market conditions in the USA and lower capacity utilisation in other locations in India due to supply and logistics constraints in the sourcing of iron ore and a steep decline in export volumes," it said.
