The contracts cover a mix of substation, line and balance-of-plant work and are expected to enhance the company’s footprint in key markets while supporting grid modernisation. The company did not disclose aggregate financials for the awards but described them as major in classification. Execution will involve coordination with local stakeholders and adherence to statutory and environmental norms.

Work on the projects will be carried out by established business units and managed through existing governance and quality systems to meet timelines.
