The event was attended by Pranab Sandangi, National Manager – Continuous Improvement, Real Estate and Facilities Management at Kuehne + Nagel; Krishnan Iyer, Chief Executive Officer of NDR InvIT Managers; Sundar Rajan Jagganathan, South Head – NDR; and Shanmugam from Touch Solar, along with other senior stakeholders and partners.

Commenting on the development, Sundar Rajan Jagganathan said the commissioning of the Angadu solar project demonstrates NDR’s focus on embedding sustainability into its operations. He added that as the group scales its asset portfolio, the integration of renewable energy solutions remains a core priority to reduce environmental impact and deliver efficient, future-ready facilities for clients and partners.

The Angadu installation forms part of NDR Group’s long-term roadmap to expand renewable energy adoption across its facilities nationwide. The initiative highlights the group’s emphasis on energy efficiency, responsible resource use and resilient infrastructure that creates sustained value for stakeholders.
