The balance sheets of IDS Infotech do provide a link with IDS Tunisia.
Aero-Matrix was set up here in 2007 with Parveen Bakshi as its chief executive officer (CEO). Before this, Bakshi was working with IDS Infotech, which has Chandigarh-based entrepreneur Pratap Aggarwal as its managing director. Aggarwal is an active member of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
Bakshi told the media here: "We are only an engineering service provider (to AgustaWestland). We are not concerned with the (bribery) allegations."
However, one of the two foreign directors of Aero-Matrix, Guido Ralph Haschke, who is Switzerland-based, is being investigated by the Italian agency on bribery charges in the deal.
Aero-Matrix records also show links to Mauritius-based Infotech Design Systems Limited.
