Godrej Enterprises Group is showcasing its advanced engineering capabilities at TAGMA 2026, while targeting 10–15 per cent year-on-year growth over the next two to three years.

The growth outlook is driven by rising demand from the automotive and electric vehicle (EV) sectors, supported by increased localisation and the need for high-precision, complex tooling solutions. EV-related projects currently account for nearly 20 per cent of the company’s order book.

At the exhibition, the Group’s Tooling business is highlighting integrated capabilities across tooling, automation, and digital manufacturing. The showcase includes IoT-enabled tools for real-time monitoring, additive manufacturing solutions such as 3D printing, and connected systems for remote diagnostics and operational efficiency.

Pankaj Abhyankar, Business Head – Tooling, said the sector is undergoing a transformation driven by localisation, product complexity, and the shift to electric mobility, positioning India as a competitive global manufacturing hub.

With over 10,000 tools manufactured commercially and continued investments in technology and MSME collaboration, the business is strengthening its role in India’s tooling ecosystem.

The development reflects broader industry trends towards digitalisation, precision engineering, and localisation across manufacturing value chains.
