Controversies.
Involvement in coalgate scamJindal Steel and Power was one of the two private companies to get a coal field in February 2009. JSPL got the Talcher coal field in Angul with reserves of 150 crore (1,500 million) metric tonnes after the cut-off date by the Central Government, while the Government-run Navratna Coal India Ltd was refused. 
Both the blocks were in Odisha, with a combined worth of over ₹2 lakh crore and were meant for liquification of coal. The opposition parties alleged that the Government violated all norms to grant the coal fields. Naveen Jindal, however, denied any wrongdoing.
Iron ore reserve mining in BoliviaOn 3 June 2006, Bolivia granted development rights for one of the world's largest iron ore reserves in the El Mutún region to Jindal Steel. With an initial investment of US$1.5 billion, the company plans to invest an additional US$2.1 billion over the next eight years in the South American country.
Jindal Steel is likely to terminate the contract of investing $2.1 billion in setting up a steel plant in Bolivia, due to non-fulfilment of contractual obligations by the Bolivian Government.
Coal mining in MozambiqueIn the coal-rich Tete province of Mozambique, local communities were displaced and resettled due to coal operations of Jindal Steel and Power, Vale, and Rio Tinto, facing significant and sustained disruptions in their ability to access water and to produce or buy food.
