Important Clarifications

Crompton Greaves wants to make sure everyone knows that the people in charge of the company aren’t connected to the company that gave them the order (MSEDCL). This means the deal is fair and doesn’t break any rules. They make a lot of different electrical products, like fans and water heaters.
