Backward Integration
Over the course of period, TARIL undertook substantial steps toward achieving comprehensive backward integration, with an objective set to be fully realized by the end of Financial Year 2027. This strategic endeavour included the significant acquisition of a controlling stake in a Cold-Rolled Grain-Oriented (CRGO) steel processing unit. CRGO steel represents one of the most vital components and traditionally forms a significant bottleneck within transformer manufacturing, constituting a major portion of the company's raw material (RM) needs. The
acquisition enables TARIL to substantially reduce reliance on external suppliers, thereby enhancing operational efficiency and significantly cutting down the lead times associated with raw material procurement. Additionally, the acquired CRGO processing unit not only serves internal demand but also represents a strategic asset capable of generating independent revenue streams by supplying CRGO steel to other transformer manufacturers.
Moreover, TARIL's backward integration strategy extended to strategic technological tie ups in three essential areas: Bushings, CTCs and pressboard. The primary motivation behind exploring strategic technological collaborations in three essential areas is to significantly reduce the existing high lead times and mitigate external dependency risks. Through strategic partnerships focused on backward integration, TARIL has internalized key production processes previously outsourced, ensuring timely availability, improved procurement efficiencies. By bringing these critical manufacturing capabilities in-house, TARIL positions itself to optimize production schedules, strengthen operational effectiveness, and substantially enhance its competitive edge in transformer manufacturing.
In addition, TARIL is strategically expanding its transformer tank fabrication capabilities by establishing an additional manufacturing facility. Currently, our in-house tank production meets approximately 40% of our requirements. With this expansion, TARIL aims to fulfill 100% of its internal tanking needs, while also positioning itself to sell up to 50% of its manufactured tanks externally to other transformer manufacturers. Given that tank fabrication has emerged as a significant bottleneck-with market prices rising sharply by 60-70% due to heightened demand-this strategic expansion will alleviate supply constraints, mitigate cost pressures, and allow TARIL to effectively capitalize on current market opportunities.
