China's Steel Exports Reach Record High in 2024 | BigMint Explains China's steel exports surged to a record high of 110.7 million tonnes in 2024, a 23% year-over-year increase. This surge is attributed to a combination of factors, including sluggish domestic demand in China, particularly in the construction sector, and aggressive export strategies by Chinese steelmakers. This development has significant implications for the global steel market, potentially intensifying competition for steel producers in other countries.   This video provides a deeper look into the factors driving China's steel export surge and its potential impact on the global steel market.

𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞, 𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞? SARDA ENERGY & MINERALS LIMITED (SEML) is a company we truly admire for its exceptional corporate culture, professionalism, and governance. Based in Raipur, SEML is a leader in India’s steel and ferro alloys industry. Beyond their core business, SEML operates a dairy venture—not for profit, but as a way to give back to the community. I’ve had the privilege of meeting Shri Kamal Sarda Ji, the Chairman of Sarda Energy and Mineral Ltd, multiple times in recent months. One of the most impactful lessons he shared was: “𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑘𝑒𝑡 𝑣𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒𝑠 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑝𝑎𝑛𝑖𝑒𝑠 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑜𝑛𝑔 𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑝𝑜𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑔𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑛𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒. 𝐼𝑡’𝑠 𝑢𝑝 𝑡𝑜 𝑦𝑜𝑢-𝑑𝑜 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡 𝑡𝑜 𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑐𝑎𝑠ℎ 𝑣𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒, 𝑜𝑟 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑘𝑒𝑡 𝑣𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒?” At BigMint, this philosophy deeply resonates with us. Inspired by it, we adopted the policy of being “𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑣𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑙𝑦 ℎ𝑒𝑙𝑑, 𝑝𝑢𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑦 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑖𝑏𝑙𝑒.” Though we are a private limited company, we strive to think and operate like a public limited company-adhering to all norms and compliance standards. One of our key performance indicators (KPIs) is ensuring 100% compliance and transparency with all our stakeholders-including employees. Accountability is embedded in our culture, with defined KPIs for everyone, including the CEO and top management. Every quarter and year, we present a “report card” to openly share our progress. This approach has fostered trust within our team and strengthened our relationships with stakeholders. It serves as a constant reminder that true success isn’t just about profits - it’s about building a sustainable and credible legacy.
