W Asia conflict to end in 2 mths, India capex to push growth: Sajjan Jindal

The impact of the Middle East conflict will not last more than two months, and India's growth story will continue with a lot of capital expenditure by industries, chairman of JSW Group Sajjan Jindal said on Saturday. Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of IIM Nagpur's tenth convocation, where he was the chief guest, he said industries focus on long-term plans. He responded to questions about his expectations for capex in 2026-27, and whether he sees sufficient demand that will encourage companies to invest due to the ongoing war involving the US, Israel and Iran. The Middle East conflict is little of a setback for India's industrial growth, he said. "However, everybody understands that this is temporary. It can get over in a week's time or a month's time, or in two months at the most," he said. The business leader said industries plan for the very long term, spanning 20, 25 or even 50 years. "So, India's growth journey will continue. A lot of capital expenditure is being made by

Pax Silica snub: India must develop its own mineral reserves, says Jindal

Days after a US-led 'Pax Silica initiative' excluded India from the rare earths alliance, JSW Group Chairman Sajjan Jindal on Friday called for increased focus on domestic exploration of minerals. Jindal, who leads the USD 23 billion conglomerate having interests in steel and also electric vehicles, said India has sufficient reserves of rare earths. "We have a lot of rare earth in our country. We have not worked on it very diligently. So therefore, we have not explored the rare earth mineral wealth in our country," he said. "But now, after the shock we got from China, I think the country is sincerely working to see that we develop our rare earths," Jindal added. On the country's exclusion from the Pax Silica initiative, he suggested that developing our own strengths is the way forward. "India has to develop its own. Atmanirbhar Bharat is a very important aspect and we have to (work)," Jindal told reporters on the sidelines of the World Hindu Economic Forum here. It can be noted t

JSW Steel reports 5% growth in crude steel production in November

Sajjan Jindal-led JSW Steel on Tuesday said its consolidated crude steel production rose 5 per cent to 24.39 lakh tonnes in November. The growth underscores the company's continued expansion and resilience in the competitive steel industry, strengthening its position as a key player in the country's infrastructure sector. The company's crude steel output was 23.23 lakh tonnes in the corresponding month of the previous fiscal, JSW Steel said in a filing to BSE. The production of its Indian operations also increased 5 per cent to 23.61 lakh tonnes during the month. The company said capacity utilisation at its Indian operations stood at 84 per cent, lower due to the shutdown of a blast furnace at its Vijayanagar facility for capacity upgradation. JSW Steel is the flagship business of the diversified USD 23 billion JSW Group. As one of the country's leading business houses, JSW Group also has interests in energy, infrastructure, cement, paints, realty, e-platforms, mobility, defence,

Speaking at the listing ceremony of JSW Cement at the NSE here, Jindal said India is the fastest growing large economy and has a great future ahead, days after US President Donald Trump's remark of India being a dead economy.

We are the fastest growing large economy in the world," Jindal said. Amid the trade policy negotiations, Trump had called India as a "dead economy" while expressing disappointment with New Delhi's posturing to continue buying cheap oil from Russia.
