As part of ArcelorMittal’s earnings in the quarter, AM/NS India numbers were released.

It was at $707 million in the prior-year period.

Aditya Mittal, CEO, ArcelorMittal, said that a continued strong recovery has been witnessed, in the second quarter alongside a sustained lean inventory environment.
