Crompton Greaves has received an approval to demerge its Consumer Products business unit into a separate listed company. The board of directors held its annual strategic review meeting on July 16, 2014 at Belgium and approved for the same.

The demerger will create better growth opportunities for its two large but significantly different businesses - Power, Industrial and Automation which is a B2B business, and the Consumer Products business which is B2C. The board also believes that this will create a more flexible capital structure for the two businesses to grow independently, allow them to pursue more ambitious strategic goals and, thus, create further value for existing shareholders.

Crompton Greaves is a global pioneering leader in the management and application of electrical energy. With more than 15,000 employees across its operations in around 85 countries, CG provides electrical products, systems and services for utilities, power generation, industries, and consumers.
