Backed by disciplined execution, strong customer engagement and loyalty to ABB India’s offerings, I am confident in our people and operating model as we continue to deliver consistent performance. With these strengths, ABB India is well positioned to capitalise on India’s next industrial capex cycle, even as we navigate a dynamic operating environment. We remain on track to achieve our sustainability targets, with continued focus on water stewardship, reduction of GHG emissions and supplier and stakeholder engagement, while reaffirming our commitment to RE100.
