Mumbai, Mar 1 (UNI) Welspun Enterprises Limited (WEL), the infrastructure and energy arm of Welspun World, has secured a significant contract to design, build, and operate a 2,000 MLD (million litres per day) water treatment plant (WTP) at the Bhandup Complex in Mumbai from the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC).
The contract, valued at Rs. 4,123.88 crore, encompasses the design, construction, and operations and maintenance of the plant.
