Escorts Ltd will transfer its existing RT Crane business to the JV as a going concern on a slump sale basis
Escorts Ltd, a leading engineering conglomerate today announced that it has executed the business transfer agreement for transferring the existing RT Crane Business of the company to its Japanese JV partner Tadano.
