Canada's CIC Energy Corp agreed to a takeover by JSW in 2010 for USD 414.5 million.[5][6] CIC Energy owned the licence to explore and exploit the Mmamabula coalfield in Botswana. The sale fell through in May 2011. However, in August 2012 the Botswana Competition Authority approved a proposed takeover of CIC Energy by Jindal Steel and Power. Jindal requires large supplies of coal for its Indian steel plants. Jindal Steel chairman Naveen Jindal is the brother of JSW chairman Sajjan Jindal.[7]

On 21 December 2010, JSW declared that it will buy controlling interest in Ispat Industries at an enterprise value of $3 billion to emerge as India's largest producers of the commodity, with an annual capacity of 14.3 million tonnes.[8][9]
