(Adds detail, JSW Steel response)
MUMBAI, April 19 (Reuters) - India's JSW Steel plans to sell specialty steel products to Russia this year, a
senior company official told Reuters on Wednesday, though
another company official later denied it.
"We plan to sell some specialty products, including
color-coated steel to Russia," one official said, declining to
be identified owing to the sensitive nature of discussions.
However, JSW Steel's deputy managing director Jayant Acharya
later told Reuters there was no such plan.
India's steel exports slumped to a five-year low in the
financial year that ended in March after slowing global demand
and an export tax hampered shipments.
