The main question: the biggest companies are not always the ones changing the most.
Start with size. Then the direction of earnings. Then the quality of the business. A share price that leads means more once those three agree.

How has Steel moved against NIFTY 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the last two years (104 weeks) this sector is 73% ahead of NIFTY 500. Earnings across its companies grew 142% on average over the last four reported quarters. It has been ahead of NIFTY 500 on a rolling three-month view for 12 weeks running.
Price and the fundamentals both up. 3 of 10 companies pass the momentum test (5+ points ahead of the Nifty 500 over 3 months, within 20% of the 52-week high).
Ahead of NIFTY 500 on the three-month view for 12 weeks running; 6 of the 10 companies in the industry index above their 200-day average (1 more than four weeks earlier); 3 of those 10 pass the momentum test (4 fewer than four weeks earlier); earnings rising at 8 of the 8 that report earnings.
Participation is shrinking, 7 → 3 of 10 over four weeks, after being ahead of NIFTY 500. Price-only fade, 8 of 8 members have higher trailing twelve-month earnings than a year ago, so the fade is in the price, not in the earnings.

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the gap between them tells the story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of its 10 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member set to 100 at the start and the sector taking the middle value, so a price line pulling away from flat bars means the market is paying more for the same earnings. A bar turns grey when that figure is lower than the quarter before. The rules are fixed and the same everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover or tap any point to read both values and the gap.

How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.
How have Steel share prices moved?
Mangalam Worldwide Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in Steel at +63.7%. Manaksia Steels Ltd leads on relative strength against the NIFTY, at +53.7%. 5 of 10 companies we track are ahead of the index on that measure (2 have no relative-strength reading yet). Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 30 October 2026.
Price and relative strength
Price · same starting point: Every company, the sector's own index and NIFTY 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts: the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
RS vs NIFTY 500: How far ahead of or behind NIFTY 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS NIFTY 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
RS vs sector: The same measure taken against Steel itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.

What is changing in Steel?
This is the written read behind the Steel figures above: what is actually happening in the industry, in words, with the evidence each claim rests on. It is dated 28 Jul 2026, so the words are older than the numbers. 5 themes are live here, 1 of them rated high severity.
The steel sector pulse for the week ending 17 July 2026 is defined by mixed demand signals and sharp profitability swings among reported constituents. MANAKSTEEL delivered a 310.19% YoY PAT increase to ₹19.32 crore, alongside 63.16% revenue growth. However, interest expense surged 170% sequentially to ₹6.75 crore, highlighting financing pressures.
How old this read is: OLD: this read comes from our Steel sector brief dated 28 Jul 2026, about 3 months ago. The page says so rather than dressing it up, and a fresh sector dive replaces it the day it runs.

Which Steel companies have the most revenue, and which grow fastest?
Tata Steel Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 10 Steel companies compared here, at ₹2,39,755 crore. JSW Steel Ltd is next at ₹1,99,021 crore. India Homes Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at the 100% top of the scoring scale, so level and change sit with different companies. Its Revenue series carries 19 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.
What the numbers say: Tata Steel Ltd is the largest at ₹2,39,755 crore, 20.5% ahead of JSW Steel Ltd. India Homes Ltd's growth is capped at 100% on the scoring scale from a ₹24 crore base, with 14 reported quarters out of the last 20. Fast growth from a smaller base is not yet the same as proven size.
What this means: Tata Steel Ltd is the size to compare against; India Homes Ltd is the one growing fastest. The faster grower has to keep that growth and turn it into margin and returns before it counts as more than a fast start.
This conclusion weakens if: Tata Steel Ltd's growth falls below India Homes Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Revenue shows both size and speed. A large company can absorb shocks and pay for wide distribution; faster growth can mean market-share gains, new capacity or stronger demand. The best sign is usually growth that lasts without hurting margins and returns.
What to watch
Watch the next two reported quarters for growth persistence, margin conversion and whether the leader is gaining share without stretching working capital.
Which Steel companies keep the most from each ₹100 of sales?
Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd has the highest OPM among the 10 Steel companies compared here, at 35%. JSW Steel Ltd is next at 19%. India Homes Ltd has the highest Margin change at +11094.8 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 9 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd leads opm at 35%; India Homes Ltd leads margin change at +11094.8 percentage points.
What this means: Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd sets the level to compare against; the company improving fastest needs another report to confirm the change.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.
Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth.

What to watch
Watch whether the next two comparable periods confirm the current margin change rather than reversing it.
Which Steel companies earn the most profit?
JSW Steel Ltd has the highest Net profit among the 10 Steel companies compared here, at ₹31,708 crore. Tata Steel Ltd is next at ₹11,263 crore. The same company also has the highest Profit growth, at the 100% top of the scoring scale. 9 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Sep 2026.
What the numbers say: JSW Steel Ltd earns the most, ₹31,708 crore of profit over the last 12 months, 181.5% above Tata Steel Ltd. JSW Steel Ltd shows at least 100% on the scoring scale (421.9% in full) growth from a profit base of ₹31,708 crore. A fast rate from a small base matters less than a large profit that keeps coming.
What this means: JSW Steel Ltd sets the level to compare against; the company improving fastest needs another report to confirm the change.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.
Net profit is the residual after operating costs, interest and tax. Growth off a loss or near-zero base is excluded from the fastest-grower rank.

What to watch
Watch whether the next two comparable periods confirm the current profit growth rather than reversing it.
Which Steel companies earn the best return on capital?
Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 10 Steel companies compared here, at 47.1%. Rajputana Stainless Ltd is next at 25.3%. Mukand Ltd has the highest ROCE change at +31.4 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd leads ROCE at 47.1%, 21.8 percentage points above Rajputana Stainless Ltd. A high return reported once may be one good year; a high return reported year after year shows a lasting business.
What this means: Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd sets the level to compare against; the company improving fastest needs another report to confirm the change.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.
ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

How are Steel stocks valued against growth and quality?
Manaksia Steels Ltd has the lowest PEG among the 10 Steel companies compared here, at 0.33×. Steel Authority of India Ltd is next at 0.57×. Mukand Ltd has the lowest P/E at 3.23×, so level and change sit with different companies. 4 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Manaksia Steels Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.33×, 42.1% below Steel Authority of India Ltd. That would need today's multiple, the company's own history and steady growth to agree.
What this means: A low valuation is a reason to look closer at the business, not a conclusion on its own.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.
PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is worked out the same way every time, as the P/E on the last 12 months of reported earnings divided by that growth rate, never on expected earnings. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What to watch
Watch whether the next two comparable periods confirm the current p/e rather than reversing it.
Which stock lists do Steel companies appear on?
Steel companies show up on 8 of our India lists. The most are on the copper & metal stocks list (8 companies).
What can make this comparison misleading?
This Steel comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 10 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. 2 have second-source figures left out because the two sources disagree. A high growth rate can still come from a very small starting figure.
Keep these limits visible
- A high growth rate can come from a very small starting figure. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
- A high ROCE can be temporary, or look high because the capital base is small. It is best read beside margin, cash flow and how much is spent back on the business.
- The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks published data only. Management quality, upcoming events and risks are not part of it.
- An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
- 1 company has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.
- 2 companies are missing from the second-source figures on purpose: the two sources disagree, so nothing from the second is drawn. Those rows have less evidence; that does not make the business weaker.
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 10 Steel companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Sep 2026 and market data through 30 October 2026.
2 of 10 companies have a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: JSW Steel Ltd (JSWSTEEL): its two data sources disagree by up to 15% on reported income across 16 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd (SAFEENTP): its two data sources disagree by up to 2.4% on reported income across 4 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld.
How a second data feed is admitted, and what happens when it disagrees
A second feed is read only after its reported income is matched against the primary source on at least three overlapping periods. Where the two agree, the figures are simply used. Where there is too little shared history to compare, the figures are still drawn, they are the only evidence there is, and marked unverified everywhere they appear. Where the two are known to disagree, nothing from the second feed is drawn and the affected company is named under the chart it is missing from.
What else do people ask about Steel stocks?
These 24 answers restate the Steel comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 10 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Sep 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 30 October 2026. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
Is the Steel sector outperforming NIFTY 500?
Steel has done better than the NIFTY 500 by 42.2% over 52 weeks and by 14.9% over 13 weeks.
1 of 10 companies we track is beating the NIFTY on relative strength (how a share price has done against the index over recent months) (2 have no relative-strength reading yet), and 1 of the 7 with a long enough price history is ahead of the industry itself.
Which Steel company is largest by revenue?
Tata Steel Ltd leads with revenue of ₹2,39,755 crore, based on 9 of 10 comparable companies through Jun 2026.
Which Steel company is growing fastest?
India Homes Ltd has the fastest current revenue growth at 100%, across 9 of 10 comparable companies.
Which Steel company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?
Manaksia Steels Ltd ranks first at 72.7 out of 100, with 80.6% of the evidence available. The score ranks published data; it is not a recommendation.
Which Steel company has the lowest comparable PEG?
Manaksia Steels Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.33, among 4 of 10 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.
How much history does this Steel comparison include?
The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Sep 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.
How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?
The four parts add up directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or old evidence moves only that part toward the middle.
Is there a Nifty Steel index?
NSE runs Nifty indices for several broad sectors, such as Nifty Bank, Nifty IT and Nifty Pharma, but not for every smaller group on this site.
Whether or not an official Nifty index covers Steel, this page builds its own equal-weight basket of 10 listed Steel companies: one company, one vote, whatever its size, so no single large company dominates. Figures are as of Sep 2026.
Which are the best Steel stocks in India?
Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Manaksia Steels Ltd comes first among 10 listed Steel companies, followed by Mangalam Worldwide Ltd. That is a ranking of published data (earnings, quality, valuation and share-price behaviour as of Sep 2026), not a recommendation.
How many Steel stocks are listed in India?
This comparison covers 10 listed Steel companies in India, each above the size floor the site applies, with 20 quarters of reported figures per company where the filings exist. The full ranked list is on this page, as of Sep 2026.
Which Steel company is the biggest?
Tata Steel Ltd is the largest, with revenue of ₹2,39,755 crore over the last 12 months, ahead of JSW Steel Ltd at ₹1,99,021 crore. That covers 9 of 10 companies with comparable reporting through Jun 2026.
Which Steel company has the best profit margins?
Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd has the highest operating margin at 35%, from 9 of 10 comparable companies. India Homes Ltd shows the biggest improvement (+11094.8 percentage points; the chart above shows the starting level).
A high margin matters most when it is steady or rising, not when it is at a peak.
Which Steel company makes the most profit?
JSW Steel Ltd earns the most, at ₹31,708 crore of net profit over the last 12 months, from 9 of 10 comparable companies.
JSW Steel Ltd has the fastest profit growth at the 100% cap of the scoring scale, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Steel company earns the highest return on capital?
Safe Enterprises Retail Fixtures Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 47.1%, across 10 of 10 companies. A high return that repeats for years shows a lasting business, while a single high reading can come from a small capital base or one good year.
Which Steel stock has the lowest PEG ratio?
On PEG (where a lower number means a lower price for what the company earns), Manaksia Steels Ltd has the lowest at 0.33×. Only 4 of 10 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a ranking of the whole industry.
A low multiple is a reason to look closer at the business, not a conclusion on its own.
Is the Steel sector beating the market?
Steel has done better than the NIFTY 500 by 42.2% over the last 52 weeks and by 14.9% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members.
Inside the sector, 1 of the 10 companies we track is beating the market on their own (2 have no relative-strength reading yet). Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.
Which Steel stock has the strongest price momentum?
Manaksia Steels Ltd has the strongest relative strength against the NIFTY 500, meaning its share price has done best against the index. A price can move well before the business results back it up, and sometimes without them.
Which Steel company has the highest 4-Factor score?
Manaksia Steels Ltd scores 72.7 out of 100, with 80.6% of the evidence available, from 29 points on growth and earnings, 15.3 on capital efficiency, 15.9 on valuation and 12.5 on relative strength. It ranks published data only; management quality, upcoming events and risks are not part of the score.
How many Steel companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?
This comparison covers 10 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Sep 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list, nothing is dropped for having thin data.
What is the total market cap of the Steel sector?
The 10 Steel companies on this page carry ₹5,98,943 crore of combined market value. JSW Steel Ltd is the largest at ₹3,04,704 crore, about 51% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 30 October 2026.
What is the Steel sector's P/E ratio?
The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 10 Steel companies on this page is 19.4×, measured on the 10 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past.
Figures are as of 30 October 2026.
How is the Steel sector performing?
1 of the 10 Steel companies we track is doing better than the NIFTY 500 on relative strength (how a share price has done against the index over recent months) (2 have no relative-strength reading yet).
The sector itself is 42.2% ahead of NIFTY 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members.
Why are some values on this page blank?
A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing figures are never estimated, copied forward or swapped for a similar-looking line, and a company with missing evidence has its score pulled toward the middle rather than scored as bad.
