This signifies the company's successful entry into the state-run transport segment. Future Growth Levers GRCL is preparing for a 2027 export entry facilitated by the India-EU FTA (zero-duty access). Key upcoming sectors include Bridge Pads, Solar, and specialized Dairy Industry seals (EU Food-grade).
