According to a company statement, the finance committee of the board approved the closure of the issue following the receipt of application forms and funds from eligible qualified institutional buyers in accordance with the terms of the offering.

JSW Energy has been actively expanding its renewable energy portfolio as part of broader industry efforts to transition toward cleaner and sustainable energy sources in India.
