Hyderabad-headquartered green energy player bought electoral bonds for YSRCP, BRS, BJP through at least 44 companies. Additionally, scrutiny of the database and matching bond purchase details with corporate filings reveals that three out of four directors of another company, Ace Urban Developers, are associated with several Greenko group firms.
