The company was given ISTD Special Commendation award for innovative training practices at the 42nd IFTDO World Conference and Exhibition held here last week.

IFTDO was founded in Geneva in 1972 in order to develop and maintain a worldwide network committed to the identification, development and transfer of knowledge, skills and technology.
The awards have been instituted by the Greentech Foundation in association with the Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs.
"We take great pride in being recognised as a learning organisation and will continue to build capacities and find platforms to share our best practices with other professionals from the power sector," BYPL CEO Ramesh Narayanan said.
