To meet the rise in electricity demand over the next twenty years, India will need to add a power system the size of the European Union to what it has now. To meet this increasing demand for electricity in the country, massive addition to the installed generating capacity is required. The wires and cables sector is a direct beneficiary of development of power generation and distribution infrastructure. While sustained economic growth continues to drive electricity demand in India, the Indian power sector is undergoing a significant change that has redefined the industry outlook. The Government of India’s focus on attaining ‘Power for all’ has accelerated capacity addition in the country. Increase in production capacity of cable companies to meet the increasing demand would significantly increase the requirements of various wire and cable machineries.
Headquartered in Mumbai, Victory Plant and Machinery Pvt. Ltd. is a 27 years old name renowned for its contribution towards meeting the rising demand and supply of Machinery for Wires and Cables Industry in India and overseas. With its more than 700 machines running successfully across the globe, the major competence of Victory Plant and Machinery is reflected throughout its range of machines which includes Drum Twisters, Stranding Machines, Armouring Machines, Planetary Stranders, Skip Stranders, Skip Laying-up, Copper Tapping Lines, Rewinding Lines, Tubulars, Single Twist & Double Twist Bunchers, Take up and Pay off units and much more.
“Perfectly positioned to cater the expectation of our customer, we constantly carry out a lot of enhancements in all our machines for improved production. While high speed and high productivity machines are our forte, we also vest out focus on taking utmost care in each level of production – right from the sourcing of the material up to the machine building process. Further, the testing of material before the usage, fit and tolerance of machine's parts before assembly in addition to proper heat treatment, stress relieving procedures, checks, and quality testing are being performed at each and every stage of production,” says Sabu PG, Managing Director, Victory Plant And Machinery.
The Market Landscape
According to a report by CRISIL, in terms of volume, the domestic wires and cables industry has registered a CAGR of 22 percent CAGR over the last five fiscals to reach about 17 million km in FY 2018-19. With the rising demands in electricity supply, the report expects the industry to reach a volume of about 27 million km by FY 2023-24 with a CAGR of 10 per cent. Adding to this, Narendra Modi, India’s Prime Minister, in late October 2020 said, “India is set to nearly double its energy consumption over the long term”. PM’s
remarks came during the inaugural address at the India Energy Forum where he said the country’s energy sector will be growth-centric, industry friendly and environment conscious. India’s Energy Plan aims to ensure energy justice. That too while fully following the global commitments for sustainable growth. This means more energy to improve the lives of Indians. But, with a smaller carbon footprint.
Undoubtedly, energy is central to achieving India's development ambitions and bringing electricity to those who do not have it is now the prime objective. As the demand soars, the requirement for quality machines with high production capability is also bound to rise, highly automated machines are bound to replace the conventional machines. Technologically advanced and reliable solutions have now become the need of the hour. Adding to this, to meet the increasing demand for electricity in the country, massive addition to the
installed generating capacity is also required and with it transmission lines which will boost the requirement of wire and cable machineries are also a must. Signaling cables required for the railway and metro lines are also increasing with many metro projects in pipeline across the country.
