BENGALURU (Reuters) - JSW Group said India's steel and finance ministries are studying request for temporary tax on China steel dumping, chairman Sajjan Jindal said on the sidelines of an industry event.

"They are studying it, they are looking at it favorably, that's all I hope. The process is on consultation with user industry. We haven't heard back (from the ministries) yet," Jindal said.
