The Transmission and Distribution business has received its largest order to date from a private sector client for a composite project.

Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Vimal Kejriwal said the transmission order will support renewable energy evacuation. He said the win has raised the share of private sector clients in the company’s transmission and distribution order book in India. The company said its year-to-date order intake has crossed Rs 18,000 crore and supports progress towards its annual target.
