Rajeev Jhawar shares his observation about the industry post covid. After the coronavirus, the industry witnessed a pandemic and subsequent lockdown disrupted overall economic activity. The Indian steel industry struggled to keep pace with the sharp fall in steel demand. Adverse market conditions forced steelmakers to cut their operations by up to 50% by the end of 2019-20 and early 2020-21. Rajeev said while the demand for wire rope in the international market was very modest, domestic demand in various sectors was very low due to the lockdown in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Further, Rajeev Jhawar, Managing Director of UML made his views on the various stimulus measures taken by the government to enhance the growth of the economy. Rajeev Jhawar also said that the various measures announced by the central government to stimulate the economy are likely to bear fruit after the monsoon. While the pandemic has not yet been eradicated, the growth is likely to occur as all the industries had learnt to live together with the pandemic.
