Good morning. Can you share bulk pricing for 50 mm ball valves? We’re looking at around 300 pieces a month.

Also, do you deliver to Nashik directly or through a transporter?

Routed to Sales West · assigned to Neha Joshi

Morning, Anil. For 300 a month we can offer our dealer slab. I’ve started a quote and will share it today. Nashik is on our weekly route, so delivery is direct.
