IIPM: She saw a future in Saw

Sminu JINDAL... She put the groove back in the Jindal Group, and made ‘infrastructure’ a statement

In an industry that tests the best out of even the toughest of men, Sminu Jindal, Managing Director of Jindal Saw

(part of $4 billion Jindal Group) remains an exception. Though she was in her teens when she joined the company as a trainee, her appointment was no less than a blessing for Jindal Saw. She turned around the sick unit into a profitable venture in the very first year of joining by pioneering the production of ultra thin gauge steel that was unheard of in that era.

Not only this, she has been instrumental in bringing about a complete image makeover of the company at every level of operation. Her acute business Acumen has also helped position the company as a competitive global player bagging major international contracts.

Sminu shared with 4Ps B&M, “I get even more stubborn, when the going gets tough & work towards making a way and put all my energies into it.” Work holds top priority in her list and she believes her true calling is to ensure that Jindal remains the largest infrastructure player with enough diversification to make the stakeholders happy. She has also initiated some groundbreaking social cause projects under Svayam provides wings to people with reduced mobility. A lady with a difference is all that we can say about Sminu, but she for sure knows her business.
