This would not have been possible without the team-spirit displayed by PFCians,” PFC Chairman and Managing Director Rajeev Sharma said in an internal letter to company employees on Wednesday.
This would not have been possible without the contribution of each PFCian, who worked untiringly through weekends as well as late nights, he added. “I am extremely proud to be a part of this family, who has come out on top of adversities and challenges time and again.
