    Ti + Nb-stabilised interstitial-free steel is deformed by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) adopting a route B C up to an equivalent strain of 24. Upon ECAP the grain size decreases to ultrafine level and it becomes strongly textured. At ε vm  = 0.6-6, components of both {110} fiber, J θ , J ¯ θ and of 〈111〉 fiber, D 1θ, D 2θ with common components of E θ , E ¯ θ are existing but after ε vm ≥9, only 〈111〉 fiber components are observed. At large strain, ε vm  = 9-24, 〈111〉 fiber texture is recorded with monoclinic symmetry. At ε vm  = 0.6, coarse grains get split into deformation bands. Fragmentation of bands (at ε vm  = 3) suppress J ¯ θ , J θ components. At ε vm  = 6, formation of lamellar structures increases intensity of mainly D 1θ, D 2θ . At ε vm  = 9, oriented ribbon grains result in strong D 1θ, D 2θ components with 〈111〉 fiber. At ε vm  = 15-24, conversion of ribbon grains to near-equiaxed shaped grains maintains 〈111〉 fiber texture with enhanced intensity of D 1θ and D 2θ components.
