Based in Mumbai, Man Infraconstruction provides construction services in infrastructure, primarily ports, industrial structures, residential and commercial real estate. The company has implemented projects for port operators Maersk and DP World.
The investment will be used in the expansion of Man Infraconstruction’s business, Parag Shah, managing director of the company, said in a statement.
