The announcement by the company came as a booster for its shares on the bourses. The company shares hit the high of Rs 96.9 in the intra-day trade on Monday.

Last week, the company's chairman and managing director, Jitendra Mamtora had maintained that demand for transformers from the state utilities has been a concern for the sector. He had also raised concerns about the current state of the power sector in India.

"India's power industry has been in a bad shape for past one year. This weakness reflects in transformer industry too. The transformer demand has been affected due to severe power shortage in south and north India," said Mamtora.
