I see huge growth for PCI and indeed the Group, in the fields of power equipment manufacturing, Power Generation, EPC & turnkey projects, precision engineering, Aerospace and specialized software solutions relating to power,  Defence and aerospace, we have been focusing in to technology based solutions since inception and in future too I look forward to our Group grows on technological lines and be counted among top technology driven engineering companies in the country and abroad.

EI  PEL is being much talked about these days. What areas does it address and where do you see it in the near-term future?

In fact Prime Electric Limited (PEL), is one of the most significant thrust areas of Prime Group. Backed by the rich experience of Prime Group in addressing the most exacting needs of the Power Sector and through its range of eco-friendly (low noise), aesthetically designed Extra High Voltage power transformers up to 1000 MVA / 500 KV. PEL shall address the needs of the Power Electricity Utilities; EPC companies; Sub-

station, Power generation &Transmission and Distribution companies. It shall also cater to large industries in various sectors such as Steel, Cement, Petroleum, Petrochemicals and others using bulk power. PEL's production capability, projected to 35000 MVA, makes it one of the largest manufacturers from India producing world-class extra high voltage power transformers for users across the globe.
PEL’s 100-acre manufacturing location at Nayudupet Special Economic Zone in Nellore district of Andhra Pradesh has excellent transport connectivity

I started my business career in the field of underground power cable fault location through computerized hi-tech van-mounted equipment and latest microprocessor based technology with absolute precision without digging and this has totally revolutionized power distribution, saving hundreds of crores of rupees for power utilities across the country through drastic improvement in power supply and significant reduction in the downtime. There has been no looking back ever since. Addressing the technological needs of players in the primary sectors of the economy –and particularly the core sectors relating to the infrastructure development – by infusing most advanced technologies from across the globe, has in fact become  a habit. Today we are viewed as a hi-tech technology solutions provider committed to delivering superior value for a clients’ investment.
Now, Prime Group has grown from being a prime idea to a multi-activity organization. Today, we have presence across the entire Indian sub-continent and also in Europe and the far-east through wholly owned subsidiaries. We also supplied specialized power conditioning systems for managing the ground control and operations of the Chandrayan – I (Mission Moon) project. We have also been providing over 100 MW of power through unique battery-less UPS systems, significantly assisting in reduction of carbon emissions. One of our Group companies is engaged in developing the latest technology software solutions to Indian Navy for ship designing and infrared signature suppression for all future warships, thereby supporting them to protect them from enemy attacks. Further our foray into green power by way of or wind-farm set up in Gujarat is fairly expressive of our commitment to
