IPL Franchise ‘Gujarat Lions’ Ropes in Astral Poly Technik as Associate Sponsor

Astral Poly Technik Ltd. has taken another significant step by partnering with IPL 2016’s newest entrant, the ‘Gujarat Lions’, as their Associate sponsor. The new giants of this year’s IPL will be a team to reckon with and will feature swashbuckling Indian and foreign players from the world of cricket.

Astral is gearing up as it extends its support to the Gujarat Lions as they tread a journey to claim victory in their debut run this IPL season.
