Risen CSMO, Mr. Bypina Veerraju Chaudary, said, "I am elated to announce this collaborative investment that is in line with our overseas development strategy for emerging solar markets and shows our strong commitment for a long innings in India." He expounded further, "Raasi's committed, solid strategy of solar PV growth is highly exciting for us, as we develop our ongoing presence in India. As always, actions speak louder than any words. By jointly investing into an initial notably sized solar PV project, whilst sweeping aside geographical boundaries, each party is demonstrating their capability and visualization of what is possible to create a profitable, minimal risk, growth within a highly competitive field."

Mr. Ponsekar, Vice President, RISEN mentioned, "We shall leverage our global project expertise to make this a showcase project and deploy Risen's newest range of high performance anti-PID solar modules, allowing both companies to benefit from the industry's lowest thermal coefficient of power incorporated within, maximizing energy capture in a hotter working environment. Consistently excelling in energy yields, as demonstrated by Photon's ranking index (#2) and with more than 3GW of solar modules installed worldwide, Risen is further reaching out to the international market with uncompromising and highly compelling solutions for discerning solar PV consumers."
