JSW Steel Joint Managing Director & CEO Jayant Acharya said, "We have completed this transaction which will set us up for a leadership position in the rapidly growing GOES market in India.

"This is in line with JSW's strategic intent to increase our share of value added products in the portfolio and is also a step towards a self-reliant India."
