This Megaproject will be the nation’s most vertically integrated RAC manufacturing facility and will provide a major thrust for the region’s ESDM components’ ecosystem. It will also create direct employment opportunities for over 1,500 people. "We are grateful to the Government of Maharashtra for facilitating PG’s push to provide its customers turn-key solutions for all home appliances. The move will help bring Room AC Manufacturing to the Western region of the country, which historically has been concentrated in the Northern, and now Southern parts of the country.” said Mr Vikas Gupta, MD-Operations, PG Group.
 
PG is working with most leading Air Conditioning brands of the nation. The level of backwards integration and the strategic location of the plant will help lower product costs and make it more affordable for the end consumers.
