The total investment will be Rs 333 crore, making it the largest investment by the company in the state.
The factory will bring to market state-of-the-art Gas Insulated Switchgear and Clean Air GIS (Blue GIS) technologies. These products will help customers in sectors such as data centers, metro rail, oil & gas, steel, transmission and distribution, meet their sustainability goals.
