Tata Steel plans to invest about ₹20,000 crore in capital expenditure in FY27, according to reports from Business Line and Free Press Journal. The planned spending is around 38% higher than the ₹14,559 crore the company spent on capex in FY26. Management indicates the FY27 programme includes both maintenance and growth-oriented projects.
Free Press Journal adds that roughly 60% of the total planned investment is earmarked for Tata Steel’s India business, reflecting India’s role as a primary growth market for steel demand tied to infrastructure and construction. The investment is described as supporting capacity expansion and technology upgrades, including expansion in tinplate and wires, upgrades linked to the Hot Rolled Pickling and Galvanising Line (HRPGL) facility at Tarapur, and coke oven projects at Jamshedpur.
Both sources indicate the capex plan also covers areas such as mining operations, supply-chain improvements, and sustainability initiatives aimed at improving efficiency and reducing environmental impact. Tata Steel’s longer-term targets are to raise Indian capacity to 40 MTPA over time and pursue a global scale target above 50 MTPA, with additional capacity projects in progress.
