Taural India, one of the country’s leading integrated aluminium foundries, has supplied high-quality aluminium castings to Triveni Engineering & Industries Ltd for use in propulsion gearboxes under an Indigenous Patrol Vessels Programme. Co-designed by the two companies, the gearboxes have now been successfully delivered, marking a key milestone in the indigenisation of marine propulsion systems and strengthening India’s advanced marine manufacturing capabilities. As part of the collaboration, Taural India developed and supplied 16 complete sets of aluminium castings in under five months. Drawing on its expertise in aluminium sand casting, the company refined the designs, optimised component weight and delivered structurally sound, defect-free castings with complex internal cavities, meeting the stringent strength and performance requirements of critical marine applications. Bharat Gite, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Taural India, said the project reflects the company’s ability to deliver precision-engineered, indigenous solutions for the maritime sector. He added that the collaboration reinforces confidence in India’s manufacturing ecosystem to produce globally competitive outcomes through local engineering excellence. Rajiv Rajpal, Chief Executive Officer of the power transmission business at Triveni Engineering & Industries Ltd, said the successful indigenisation of lightweight propulsion gearboxes represents a significant step towards strengthening India’s maritime self-reliance. He noted that Taural India was selected for its proven capability in high-precision aluminium sand casting and its ability to deliver large, intricate components within demanding timelines. Taural India is certified by the American Bureau of Shipping, confirming its credentials as a qualified marine component supplier meeting rigorous global standards. Through this project, Triveni Engineering & Industries Ltd has further reinforced its role as a trusted partner in India’s marine manufacturing ecosystem. Together, the collaboration highlights the growing sophistication of India’s industrial landscape, where home-grown engineering partnerships are enabling world-class solutions and supporting the country’s self-reliance objectives.
