“L&T will continue to bring in suitable products in the interest of the nation to provide better healthcare. L&T wishes to reaffirm its commitment for the growth of its business,” Mukhija added.
“In order to cater to the growing market needs, another manufacturing facility will be set up on a recently acquired site close to its existing unit in Mysore,” the company said.
