New Delhi/ Ghaziabad, August 3, 2023: EMS Ltd, which just filed its DRHP with SEBI, intends to focus on turnkey solutions in water and waste-water solution government projects supported by international funding agencies including the World Bank.
Almost all of our projects are world bank funded through local state government bodies, a top executive of the company said.
“The government's next focus area would probably be water and waste-water management, a sub-segment of India's environmental technology segment.
In the near future, the awareness about clean water & government initiatives to supply clean water to every household in India will also provide good opportunities,” said Shri Ashish Tomar, Managing Director of EMS Ltd, “The National Mission for Clean Ganga, the Jal Jeevan Mission, and Community Drinking Water Schemes are just a few of the initiatives that the government is expected to further support.
This will result in a larger order pipeline for local and national businesses operating in these specialised sectors,”
