Apart from setting up the unit in UP, the company will also do its marketing and promotion here. Hitesh said that UP is a big market and he is impressed by the major changes in infrastructure, connectivity and law and order here under the leadership of CM Yogi. He sought support from the representatives of the government for their investments as well as large-scale business in UP. On behalf of the representatives, they were informed about the safe environment and all the reliefs and incentives provided by the government to investors,” the release said.

“The company is working on enhancing the InstaShield device, after which one device will be sufficient to kill the virus in an area of 25,000 square feet. Work is on to make it effective for swine flu and bird flu as well. InstaShield is set to launch its IPO in December 2023. Exports are expected to start by February 2023.
