This project, set to begin in Q2 2025, marks the company’s second international order.
Additionally, in June 2024, KBC Global secured a $20 million contract through its subsidiary Karda International Infrastructure Ltd, for infrastructure development in Africa. This positions the company as a rising player in the continent’s infrastructure sector.
KBC Global has been active in expanding its domestic portfolio with new projects in Nashik. The company recently launched a project in Deolali with both commercial and residential units. Moreover, KBC Global successfully regularized its Rs. 13.50 crore debt with Capri Global Capital Ltd, receiving favorable terms and waivers, further improving its financial position.
The company has also made progress in its existing projects. In September 2024, KBC Global handed over 13 units across various projects, bringing the total number of possessions since April 2024 to over 135 residential and commercial units in Nashik.
