Vimal Kejriwal, MD & CEO, KEC International commented, 'We are pleased with the various orders secured across our business verticals. We are particularly enthused by our maiden order in the growing segment of ropeways. With the recent wins in the Middle East and SAARC, we have bolstered our International T&D order book in addition to our already robust India T&D order book, further solidifying our overall T&D business. With these orders, our YTD order intake now stands at over Rs 18,400 crore, reflecting a remarkable growth of around 60% vis-a-vis last year. The uptick in order intake has resulted in our order book + L1 being over Rs 40,000 crore. With this formidable order book and a promising pipeline of tenders, we have a clear visibility of growth in the coming quarters.' Meanwhile, the company has executed the business transfer agreement with its subsidiary, KEC Asian Cables (KACL), to transfer its Cables business, on a going concern basis, via slump sale.
