Hyderabad 04 March 2013: BS Enviro Solutions Ltd, a subsidiary of BS Limited, today announced that is has reached an agreement to acquire a majority (51%) stake in Harbinger Capital Partners’ Skywater India Pvt Ltd. (“Skywater India”).

Skywater India manufactures and installs advanced air to water generators in areas with little or no access to clean drinking water.  Through its investment, BS Enviro will become the local operating partner of the business and will assume responsibility for the day-to-day management of Skywater India.  This joint venture marks the BS Enviro Solutions foray into the potable/ renewable water generation segment.

Foreseeing the huge potential in the potable water generation segment, BS Enviro solutions will leverage Skywater India’s license for patented, unique technology which generates water from the atmosphere.

It converts water vapor in the air into fresh and clean water and can produce anywhere from 700 liters to more than 1200 liters per day.

The joint venture with Harbinger Capital Partners will position BSES to work with local governments across India to help meet the pressing need in villages across the country for safe and adequate drinking water. Apart from India, BSES will also have access to markets in Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Cambodia, Laos & Myanmar.

 “We look forward to work with Harbinger Capital Partners to tap into the huge opportunity of helping India’s rural communities’ access clean water and improve the health of their citizens.” said Mr. Rajesh Agarwal, Chairman & Managing Director, BS Limited.
