JSW Steel's Mozambique Coal Deal Back on Track as Mining Concession Restored
JSW Steel has received approval to proceed with its $74 million acquisition of Minas de Revuboe in Mozambique after the new government restored the coal mining concession. The deal, initially announced a year ago, was delayed due to the previous administration revoking the mining lease. The acquisition will provide JSW Steel access to up to 280 million tons of premium coking coal, supporting vertical integration and reducing dependence on external suppliers. The project is in the pre-development stage, allowing JSW Steel to shape its development according to its needs.
The Supreme Court has stayed the liquidation of Bhushan Steel & Power Ltd and permitted JSW Steel to file a review petition. This decision follows a previous ruling that declared JSW Steel's acquisition of Bhushan Steel illegal. The court has ordered a status quo to maintain fairness in the process. This development has significant implications for both companies and the broader steel industry, potentially setting precedents for future acquisitions and liquidations in the sector.

JSW Steel: Q4 Results In Line, BPSL Uncertainty Persists
JSW Steel's Q4 consolidated Ebitda reached Rs 6,380.00 crore, slightly below market expectations. The company reduced its net debt to Rs 76,600.00 crore. For FY26, JSW Steel projects 8-10% domestic steel demand growth and plans Rs 20,000.00-21,000.00 crore in capex. The Bhushan Power & Steel unit remains a challenge due to legal uncertainties.
JSW Steel's Q4 consolidated net profit increased to ₹15.03 billion from ₹13.22 billion year-over-year, despite a slight revenue dip. The company declared a final dividend of ₹2.80 per share and approved fundraising of ₹140 billion through NCDs and equity issuance. JSW Steel set production targets of 30.50 million tonnes of crude steel and 29.20 million tonnes of saleable steel for FY2026. The company is evaluating legal options regarding the Supreme Court judgment on Bhushan Power and Steel Limited.
