The civil engineering machinery and equipment market is witnessing a constant evolution with the Government releasing new tenders constantly in relation to roads, hospitals, hostels, bridges and colleges. Along with the development of the infrastructure, there is also an increased demand for anything related to concrete leading to an exponential increase in the need for the best quality concrete batching plants.
With the advancement in technology, the future of India is rapidly changing when it comes to the civil engineering machinery and equipment segment, especially the concrete plant manufacturers. Companies have started embracing industry 4.0 by making a substantial investment in the new sustainable technology for Greenfield capacity. In 2020, the Indian concrete market size was estimated at over $15 million where the forecast shows a total of 9% increase during the year 2026.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought the whole world under lockdown that gave rise to many restrictions. The big players in the industry were encountering serious bottlenecks which were mostly owing to their lack of use of technological benefits. It was during this time that Nilkanth Engineering sprung to action and started evolving digitally - putting sales as the centre of their strategy, they updated their website, created detailed product videos, and developed special media campaigns to hone in on their online presence. Hardik Solanki further adds, “ As customer relationship is our priority, we hosted informative webinars and online meetings to build trust and educate our customers.
We constantly strive to be different from our competitors in every way possible and bring unique outcomes in every angle of our business. The bottom line is that we can stay engaged with our customers online as well as offline because our major focus is our clients. Clients are crucial for our business for it to stay resilient and thrive and Nilkanth strategizes to meet every client’s expectation”.
Founded in 1982, by Hasmukhbhai Solanki, Nilkanth Engineering began with his powerfully imaginative dream and strength. In 1986, their first product marking machine for the cable industry was developed where the cables could be identified by identification numbers and could be traced; they could also be easily installed by their marked identification number. In 1993, Nilkanth started manufacturing Asphalt Paver- a finisher machine that could be used in road construction projects. Finally in 2000, Nilkanth developed its first mobile concrete batching plant and started sending the plant to various parts of Gujarat like Gandhidham, Bhuj, and the Kutch area. Nilkanth entered into export in 2006 and became one of the most desired mobile concrete batch manufacturing companies in 2021.
Their remarkable progress is a testament to their customer-centric approach. In 2018, Hardik Solanki, son of Hasmukhbhai Solanki, joined Nilkanth and took over responsibilities for sales, marketing, dealer building, strategy planning, and handling corporate customers in India, and abroad. Hardik’s focus is on bringing the finest technology to Nilkanth and manufacturing products with an aim to deliver high-quality components to add to durability, trustworthiness, and stability. Nilkanth is ready with a much larger factory space which will increase the manufacturing capacity of the concrete batching plant by manifolds and will introduce a tower crane and transit mixer with the launch of the new factory.
