The company began commercial operations in 1979 with the opening of the first manufacturing facility at Nashik, not long after thatTata Exports decided to invest into the ownership of the company as they were looking for a reliable supplier of towers for their transmission line business. This gave JSL an opportunity to work on international projects right from the beginning of their operations. JSL went public in the year 1989 and the shares were listed on BSE.

Looking at the huge domestic demand and the immense potential for export of transmission line towers, they commissioned another unit at Urla Industrial Area, Raipur, Chattisgarh, in March 1995.
