"We were presented with an excellent and lucrative investment opportunity in the education sector by ICREA under the dynamic leadership of Capt. Sunil Saraf. The opportunity was in alignment with our strategy, vision and investment objectives.
Our experience with ICREA was very enriching indeed. They are not only experts in their field and capable of providing customized services based on client needs but also very reliable with lot of integrity. It is this which has come to the fore in our proclivity to strongly recommend ICREA. We certainly look forward to working with them in the future. Wishing Capt.
