Abstract
A steel sheet has a microstructure that contains ferrite in an area ratio of 20% or more, martensite in an area ratio of 5% or more, and tempered martensite in an area ratio of 5% or more. The ferrite has a mean grain size of 20.0 μm or less. An inverse intensity ratio of γ-fiber to α-fiber in the ferrite is 1.00 or more and an inverse intensity ratio of γ-fiber to α-fiber in the martensite and the tempered martensite is 1.00 or more.
