VIEWS AND REVIEWS:

Naveen Jindal Chairman

It is my privilege to present to you our Integrated Annual Report for FY 2022-23. The steel industry has always been characterised by its everchanging nature, but the combination of various factors in recent times such as climate change and geopolitical uncertainties have heightened the level of unpredictability in the industry. The magnitude and interplay of these factors have shaped our industry and the world at large, compelling organisations to demonstrate agility and resilience to survive and thrive. Only companies with scale, sustainability, and growth are likely to survive the evergrowing complexity of the industry. Amongst the leading steel players in India, your Company has successfully navigated through these challenges and has emerged stronger and better than before. We managed to deliver yet another set of excellent performance during the year despite the heightened uncertainty in the global macro environment driven by the Russia-Ukraine conflict, multidecadal high inflation in many advanced economies and slowdown in China among other factors. Our ability to innovate, set new standards for improving the lives of people, and stay true to our core values was once again pivotal in this journey.

Bimlendra Jha Managing Director

I am delighted to reach out to you once again, reflecting upon a year filled with challenges and uncertainty on a global scale.

I am proud to present our success in de-leveraging our balance sheet while maintaining our focus on investments to build a stronger future.

Y = a + b X

SAIL Weekly Returns = -25400.65 + 0.57 (NIFTY 50 Weekly Returns)

INTREPRETATION:

  • of Observations are 51.
  • R2 means (0.72) 72% of JINDAL STEEL AND POWER LTD Weekly Returns is explained by NIFTY 50 Weekly Returns. The rest 37% are errors which are not considered by the model.
  • T stat for b & P value of it is 0.00, it is less than 0.05 which means that NIFTY 50 Weekly Returns are statistically significant at 5% level.
  • F = 128.745 and P = 0.00 which is less than 0.05 that means the overall the model is statistically significant.

 

CONCLUSION-

beta (0.57) is less than one so we can invest in the company for the long term or the make the investment for than one year.

So, based on this interpretation, investing  for the long term or holding the investment for more than one year could be a viable strategy, considering its lower volatility compared to the market.
