Telecom gear maker ITI to invest ₹150 cr to boost solar panel capacity
Public sector electronics and telecom gear maker ITI Limited plans around ₹150 crore investment to scale up its solar panel manufacturing capacity to 90 MW in the next fiscal, a top company official said.
The company, which plans to raise ₹1,600 crore through a follow-on public offer (FPO), has a solar panel capacity of 18 MW currently.
“Given the kind of demand we are witnessing in the solar space, especially in the rooftop segment, from corporates and commercial establishments as well as the state governments, we want to be ready to tap that opportunity,” the company’s Chairman and Managing Director R M Agarwal told PTI.
