The disclosure was submitted by SPIL's Company Secretary, Ravi Patidar, to the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). Through this investment, SPIL aims to expand its role in the solar manufacturing industry and capitalize on the growing demand for domestically produced solar cells and modules in India.
