Tata Steel - Would be merger be of any value?

Hi all, I hope this thread is also related to tata steel. 4.5% is a nice dividend yield. considering the nature of the company. steel being in upcycle.

What I like about the company?

  • Dividend yield 4.5% is attractive.
  • Synergy with other valued added steel products is just amazing.
  • Raw materials 100% iron ore is sourced inhouse. only coal 50% requirements are imported. (from annual reports)
  • Being associated with the tata family.

What are my expectations?
I am not expecting the stock to be a huge multi-bagger. I expect the stock to be a nice cushion against inflation with the regular increasing dividend flow.

My Questions to fellow trackers of this company,

  1. Are my expectations good? your comments.
  2. As per annual reports I am to understand that all their iron ore requirements are satisfied in-house. in this case how long they will be able to dig up the iron ore? how much is left? how difficult is it to acquire new pits?
  3. since we are in a steel upcycle. how much in percentage it has effects on profits in the down cycle.

Any point you share will be helpful. thanks in advance!
