Bearings maker SKF India plans to invest up to Rs 1,460 crore by 2030 to enhance its manufacturing capabilities across key facilities in both industrial and automotive segments, according to an investor presentation by the company.
The company has lined up capital expenditure of about Rs 1,210 crore to Rs 1,460 crore by 2030, to increase manufacturing capacities at its facilities in Haridwar, Pune, and Bangalore.
Under the plan, SKF India is looking to invest a total of Rs 800 crore to Rs 950 crore towards its industrial business over the next five years, on channel expansion to meet the growing demand in India and construction of a new plant in Pune by 2028, as per the presentation.
The investment on channel expansion will be around Rs 350 crore to Rs 450 crore between 2025 to 2030, while on the new plant it will be around Rs 450 crore to Rs 500 crore.
For its automotive business, SKF India said it has lined up Rs 410 crore to Rs 510 crore by 2030, which will include capacity increases at its key manufacturing plants in Haridwar, Pune, and Bangalore.
These investments will focus on bearings for two-wheelers, electric vehicle (EV) powertrains, and wheel-end bearings for both passenger and commercial vehicles.
Haridwar facility will witness investment ranging from Rs 100 crore to Rs 150 crore for a 50 per cent capacity increase to cater to the growing demand for EV powertrain bearings, with completion targeted for 2029, the company noted.
SKF India further said, it plans to increase its Pune plant capacity by 30 per cent to manufacture unitised wheel-end bearings for both internal combustion engine (ICE) and EV applications, with an investment of Rs 300 crore to Rs 350 crore and completion scheduled for 2030.
