KOLKATA: A leading body of plant and equipment manufacturers has sought Prime Minister Narendra Modi's intervention to withdraw a recent draft order proposing mandatory standards in making of stainless steel flat products. The Process Plant and Machinery Association of India (PPMAI), which counts the likes of Larsen & Toubro, Godrej, Thermax and Praj Industries among its members, said in a letter that the draft quality control order will discourage investment in key manufacturing sectors as quality rules under the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) are not comprehensive and updated.
