Vikas Ecotech has successfully secured a significant contract worth Rs 0.2 billion for the delivery of coal to Prism Johnson, a company backed by the Rajan Raheja Group.
With a robust focus on business expansion, Vikas Ecotech has been actively exploring various avenues within the energy sector. This includes not only the conventional energy sources commonly used in India but also the burgeoning domains of renewable and eco-friendly energy.

In a strategic diversification move, Vikas Ecotech is broadening its portfolio by entering the manufacturing of steel pipes and MDPE (medium-density polyethylene) pipes.
The official statement emphasised the company's entrance into the conventional energy market with its coal supply endeavours. This move is seen as a decisive step toward establishing a strong presence within the energy business sector, particularly given coal's major role as an energy source in India.
