“We are a nearly 23-year-old company, and if I had to define Ceigall, its simple—what comes on the road, we build it,” said Ramneek Sehgal, Managing Director of Ceigall India, which is known for its ability to deliver complex projects on time, such as successful completion of the Katra Expressway, adding, “Ceigall is making its mark in India's construction landscape.
