Panasonic Life Solutions is targeting up to 12 per cent growth in business this financial year.

“In the last two months, we have seen India witness heavy rains leading to flooding in many parts of the country.

This financial year we expect the electric works to grow between eight to 12 per cent,” added Rajesh Nandwani.
