Steel imports have spiked roughly 18% year to date â according to a recent report from the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI), an association of North American steel makers. Per AISI, based on preliminary U.S. Census Bureau data, total U.S. steel imports went up 17.5% year over year to roughly 35.6 million net tons through the first eleven months of 2017. Finished steel imports for the same period also increased 14.3% to around 27.6 million net tons.
Crude steel production grew by 4.6% to 81.2 million tonnes and steel demand grew by 1.8%. India's GDP growth has slowed down to 5% in 2013 on account of rising inflation and tight monetary controls. This has led to weak domestic steel demand, which grew by 3.3% in 2013 inspite of rise in demand in the last quarter.This has resulted in India becoming the net exporter of steel in Financial Year 2013-14 after a gap of six years.he successful ramp up of the new facilities under the 3 mtpa expansion programme led to an increase of 1.03 million tonnes (increase of 13%) in crude steel production in the Financial Year 2013-14.
