It was a night Sajjan Jindal will never forget. It was the first week of October almost 11 years ago. At the age of 38, the second son of industrialist O.P. Jindal was making the biggest bet of his life. He was about to commission a Rs. 4,000 crore integrated steel plant in Vijaynagar in Karnataka. And he had banked on an unknown and untested technology called Corex. Jindal reckoned that the technology was cleaner, used low-grade coal and thus offered higher margins. His peers thought it was suicidal.

on Nov 2, 2009Great thoughts and THOUGHTS are the initiation for any success story. His vision and his handling of his team (obviously top guns) are really marvelous. When I read the comment that his expansion to 16 Mollion tonnes at Vijaynagar may be a tough preposition for the company to handle, I immediately wish I could work with him as I am a logistics professional.
