Transformers and Rectifiers to Invest Rs 1,250 Crore in Three Gujarat Plants
Transformers and Rectifiers (India) Limited plans to invest Rs 1,250 crore to establish three greenfield manufacturing plants in Chiyada, Gujarat. These facilities will produce key components such as bushings, pressboard insulation materials, and continuously transposed conductors essential for high-voltage transformer manufacturing. Construction began in December 2025, with operations expected by early fiscal 2027-28. The project aims to generate around Rs 2,000 crore in annual revenue and create over 1,000 direct jobs, supporting India's goal to enhance domestic manufacturing and reduce import reliance.
