The ‘Overview’ section is based primarily on in-depth analysis of the aggregate financial performance of all the CPSUs as well as of those featured in the publication. Views of the industry veterans on opportunities and growth drivers about their respective sectors as well as the future plans have been encapsulated in the ‘Experts’ View’ section.
