The company operates through three primary segments--Conductors, Cables (including power cables and wires, elastomeric and E-beam cables, house wires and flexibles, cables for the USA market, and cable harnesses), and Oil (encompassing transformer oils, white oils or liquid paraffin, petroleum jelly, and process oils)--with additional offerings in lubricants and specialty polymers; it ranks as the world's largest aluminum and alloy conductor manufacturer, the third-largest global producer of transformer oils, and among the largest manufacturers of specialized cables in India.
Apar Industries maintains manufacturing facilities in Maharashtra, Gujarat, Odisha, and Dadra & Nagar Haveli, with exports to markets including the United States, Europe, the Middle East, East Africa, Kenya, and emerging regions in Latin America, Central Asia, and Eastern Europe; it serves utilities, power grids, railways, defense, electric vehicle sectors, and transformer OEMs.
Founded in 1958 and headquartered in Mumbai, India, the company has pursued significant expansions, including a Rs 185 crore capital expenditure plan in February 2024 to enhance conductor and transformer oil capacity at its Umbergaon and Khatalwada plants, alongside commissioning a new specialty elastomeric cables facility in Nagpur for railways and defense; it secured a Rs 240 crore conductor export order from a Kenyan utility, repeat domestic orders from Power Grid and NTPC, and a supply agreement with a European transformer OEM.
Recent strategic initiatives encompass Rs 250 crore capex over FY25-FY26 funded via internal accruals and debt for conductor and specialty oil facilities, investments in solar energy at its Silvassa unit, digital supply chain enhancements with ERP and AI forecasting, R&D collaborations with IIT Bombay on green insulation materials, and a commitment to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 20% by FY30 while preparing its first ESG report in FY25.
