Sterling Tools has formed a partnership with Zhejiang Meishuo Electric Technology to manufacture latching relays in India, aiming for Rs 2 billion in revenue by FY2030.
A new facility will be established in Bengaluru with an initial investment of Rs 200 million, spearheaded by its subsidiary, Sterling Tech-Mobility.
