Commenting on the new orders, Vimal Kejriwal, MD & CEO, KEC International, said, “We are pleased with the orders in T&D, especially the TBCB order, which strengthens our order book in the domestic T&D market and diversifies our clientele. The Railway business further consolidates its presence in emerging/new areas, with the order in the Semi High-Speed Rail under Mission ‘Raftaar.’ The large orders in civil and oil & gas pipelines reaffirm our confidence in the strong growth of these businesses going forward.
