Company director Varun Saraf explained that the project is on a fast track, “Given our ongoing production cycle and short lead times, we aim to complete this expansion within the current calendar year to meet growing demand efficiently,” he said.
Group Nirmal is a major Kolkata‐based wires and cables conglomerate founded in the 1970s. It is an INR 2,000‑crore (USD 240 million) company with advanced facilities for producing steel wires, aluminium conductors, cables and hot-rolled steel products.
The group operates multiple plants (primarily in West Bengal and Odisha) with a combined annual capacity of roughly 216 thousand tonnes of wire. Its diverse product range – from galvanised and black steel wires to welding electrodes, aluminium conductors and insulated cables – serves industries including power transmission, electrical engineering, security fencing, construction, agriculture and railways. With over a thousand employees across its facilities, Group Nirmal has built a reputation for quality and innovation.
The firm says this capacity push is driven by strong market demand. Group Nirmal expects rising orders from core sectors – notably power generation and transmission, infrastructure and construction, agriculture (e.g. fencing and cage), railways and general engineering – to absorb the extra output. By expanding its manufacturing lines now, the company aims to stay ahead of a broader upswing in India’s infrastructure and electrification projects.
