LAKSHMI MITTAL'S CAREER

His first step towards reaching the billionaire club, took place in the early seventies, when he

started working in his father's steel firm. In 1976, he moved to Indonesia, on the realization of

the fact that opportunities for higher growth were limited to him in India.There, with his father's

backing, he found a steel plant, Ispat Indo and made this company a success.

A shrewd businessman, his success has largely been built on buying up loss making state

owned firms and turning their fortunes around.

In 1989, he turned a government owned firm that was making a loss of $1 million a day, in

Trinidad and Tobago, into a profitable business. It was a situation, where US consultants and

every risk worth its effort.

Steel Blast furnace plant, owned by the state in Kazakhastan,
