PTC Industries Limited (NSE/BSE: PTCIL) is an Indian advanced manufacturing company founded in 1963 and headquartered in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. The company specializes in high-integrity precision castings using a portfolio of proprietary and licensed process technologies — Replicast®, RapidCast™, ForgeCast™, PrintCast™, PowderForge™, and TiCast — spanning expanded-polystyrene moulding, large-part rapid casting, cast-plus-forge hybrid processing, 3D-printed patterns, hot isostatic pressing of metal powders, and vacuum titanium casting. Its product range covers aerospace-grade titanium and superalloy castings, vacuum-melt alloy castings, investment castings, precision CNC-machined components (5-axis, single-piece up to 6,000 kg), and titanium powder, serving end markets in aerospace, defense, space, oil & gas, LNG, marine, power generation, and pulp & paper. More than 75% of production is exported.

The company operates a vertically integrated manufacturing platform through its parent entity (industrial and commercial castings) and two wholly-owned subsidiaries: Aerolloy Technologies, focused on titanium and superalloy castings for aerospace and defense — which houses India's first Vacuum Arc Remelting furnace (800 kg in-house capacity), a 600 tpa Plasma Arc Melting furnace commissioned in January 2026, and a 4500/5100T Intelligent Open Die Forging System commissioned in April 2026 — and Trac Precision Solutions, a UK-based precision engineering business acquired in October 2024. Manufacturing is concentrated at the Strategic Materials Technology Complex within the Lucknow Node of the UP Defence Industrial Corridor, with additional facilities in Gujarat (three plants) and Mehsana, supported by a DSIR-recognized in-house R&D laboratory.

PTC's commercial model is enterprise-direct with multi-year qualification cycles, long-term supply agreements, and project-specific custom pricing (not publicly disclosed). Aerospace and defense customers include Boeing, Airbus, Rolls-Royce, Safran Aircraft Engines (₹100+ cr contracts), Honeywell Aerospace (multi-year supply agreement), Blue Origin (BE-4 engine castings for New Glenn), Dassault Aviation (long-term purchase agreement for Rafale titanium parts), BAE Systems (M777 howitzer castings), BrahMos Aerospace (₹100+ cr order), ISRO/VSSC (40-tonne Ti-6Al-4V ingot conversion), IAI, GTRE, and HAL; industrial customers include Rolls-Royce, Siemens, GE, Alstom, Metso, and Emerson. FY26 reported revenue was ₹643 crore (~US$77M) with net profit of ₹101 crore, and Goldman Sachs projects revenue scaling to ₹1,700 crore by FY27, with margins crossing 35% within five years.
