Inox Wind Limited has bagged an order for a 20 MW wind power project to be set up at Nipaniya, Mandsaur in the state of Madhya Pradesh from PTC Energy Limited (PEL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PTC India Limited, the leading provider of power trading solutions in the country. The order is PTC Energy Limited’s first order with Inox Wind and the project is due to be commissioned by March 2016.
