Following the acquisition, the group renamed it Jindal Iron and Steel Company (JISCO). Subsequently, in the same year, the group established its first steel plant in Vasind, near Mumbai.
Jindal Vijayanagar Steel Limited (JVSL) was established in 1994. Situated at Toranagallu in the Ballari-Hospet region of Karnataka, this plant strategically positioned itself in the heart of the high-grade iron ore belt, sprawling across 3,700 acres of land. In 2004, JSW made a strategic move by acquiring Salem Steel Works, adding to its portfolio. The year 2005 witnessed a pivotal moment in group's history when JISCO and JVSL merged to create JSW Steel.

In 2008, JSW Group ventured into a rebar joint venture in Georgia. The acquisition of an integrated steel plant at Dolvi, Maharashtra, in 2010 added to their steel production portfolio. And, the acquisition of Welspun Maxsteel in 2014 marked as a diversification in the group's history.
In 2009, JSW Group entered the cement business by establishing JSW Cement and established production facilities in various locations including Vijaynagar, Nandyal (Andhra Pradesh), Dolvi, Jaipur, Shiva (Odisha), Salboni (West Bengal), and Fujairah (United Arab Emirates).
