Jayasimha's capital was located at Anahilapataka in present-day Gujarat. Besides large parts of Gujarat, his control also extended to parts of Rajasthan: he subdued the Shakambhari Chahamana king Arnoraja, and the former Naddula Chahamana ruler Asharaja acknowledged his suzerainty. Jayasimha also annexed a part of Malwa by defeating the Paramarass. He also waged an inconclusive war against the Chandela king Madanavarman.
