- Sluggish demand from major downstream consumers (construction, automotive, infrastructure).
- Project delays and reduced spending.
- Overcapacity in the global steel market leading to price pressures.
- Fluctuations in raw material prices (iron ore and coking coal).
- Availability of cheaper imported steel.
- Stricter environmental regulations and increased compliance costs.
- Shortages of skilled labor.
