Hinduja group flagship Ashok Leyland on Friday said it had bagged an order for 200 buses in Bangladesh.
The order is for single-decker AC buses which includes intercity AC buses as well as city AC buses, Ashok Leyland said in a statement.
“These completely built-up (CBU) units for BRTC (Bangladesh Road Transport Corporation) will be procured against a tender under Indian line of credit,” it added.
Commenting on the development, Ashok Leyland managing director Vinod K Dasari said the repeat order, after the double-decker bus order, was a testament of the trust Bangladesh authorities had in the company.
“Bangladesh continues to be one of our most important export markets. And it will continue to play a key role in our strategy of increasing our export share in total revenue,” Dasari said.
