Ramkrishna Forgings on Thursday announced the recent award of a business contract valued at 17.2 million euros (approximately Rs 156 crore) from a Eurasian customer in the farm equipment industry.

We are committed to delivering products of the highest quality and contributing to the growth of the Eurasian Farm Equipment industry," said Lalit Kumar Khetan, Whole Time Director and CFO, Ramkrishna Forgings.
Speaking to CNBC-TV18, Khetan said: "These are long term contracts rather than the order and like both the orders are a four-year contract. Today’s announcement was more in the farm equipment side. That's the 4.31 million order on the engine and transmission component for my Eurasian customer. And that will be supplied 4.31 million every year for the next four years period."
"Similarly, the earlier order that will also for European OEM and that was for Rear Access Component. So that again as a four year contract, so everything will go on floor by another six to eight months. So you will see the supplies from this contracts that will be starting in next six to eight months and will continue for a period of four years," he added.
