We continue to prioritise safety and well-being of our employees, partners, and customers. Polycab is proactively supporting society and communities across India. Our strengths coupled with new strategic initiatives will enable Polycab to maintain its dominant position in Wires and Cables and expand presence in the ‘Electricals’ ecosystem.”
