Bolivia may end contract with India’s Jindal Steel

Monday, 10 October 2011

India-based steelmaker Jindal Steel & Power Ltd. faces threats from the Bolivian government to end its contract with the company, according the media reports. The Bolivian Ministry of Energy has suggested that Jindal Steel deceived Bolivia, failing to meet its commitments regarding iron ore mine investment.

As SteelOrbis previously reported, Jindal Steel and the Bolivian government signed a $2.1 billion investment contract in 2007 to mine and smelt 40 billion mt of iron at Mutun on Bolivia's border with Brazil.
