The ability to provide high tech precision, engineered -to-order solutions has made Triveni Turbine (TTL) one of the most trusted brands in the engineering and capital goods sector. TTL came into existence in October 2010 when Triveni Engineers Industries demerged its steam turbines business into TTL. The turbines business was started in 1970 and the company has successfully maintained its dominance over the years. Among the world’s largest manufacturers of customised industrial turbines of up to 30 MW, TTL also accounts for 64 per cent domestic market share.
Global advantage
At present, over 2,500 steam turbines supplied by TTL have been installed across 18 industries in over 50 countries in Europe, Africa, Central and Latin America, Southeast Asia and SAARC countries. TTL operates in higher capacity turbines segment through its subsidiary GE Triveni, a joint venture with General Electric. This has helped the company gain technical expertise and global recognition.

Though the domestic market has remained subdued in the last three years, TTL’s exports have witnessed a compound annual growth of 50.5 per cent over FY 2012-15 to reach Rs.264.4 crore. This is due to the company’s efforts to enter new markets and deliver quality products and services at competitive rates. Its exports are mainly to biomass and other renewable sectors. TTL has also done well in the aftermarket business. The order book in Q1FY16 reflects a y-o-y growth of 36 per cent.

The company’s scrip has churned out returns of 85.4 per cent from January 2013 till September 7, 2015.
