What TKIL Industries does

TKIL Industries Pvt. Ltd., formerly thyssenkrupp Industries India Pvt. Ltd., is a 78-year-old Indian industrial engineering and manufacturing company specializing in turnkey EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) solutions for heavy industrial sectors. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Pimpri, Pune, with registered office in Mumbai, the company operates through six business divisions: Sugar Plant & Machinery, Mining & Bulk Material Handling, Cement, Boiler & Power Plant, Service Business, Green Hydrogen, and Battery & Energy Storage. Its customers include major Indian conglomerates and government PSUs (Adani Group entities, Tata Power, Tata Steel, UltraTech, NTPC, NMDC, NLC) as well as global industrial players (Dangote, Heidelberg Cement, Sudzucker, Agrana), with project execution across 35+ countries.

The company's core technology stack includes in-house cold cyclone CFBC (Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion) boiler technology ranging from 50-1000 TPH with no licensor dependence, a patented Mushroom Head Primary Air Nozzle design, a proprietary Two Roller Mill with RAL device achieving 25% power reduction, and licensed technologies from global leaders including thyssenkrupp Polysius (cement), Babcock & Wilcox Volund (biomass boilers), TERMOTECNICA INDUSTRIALE (oil/gas boilers), Valmet Automation (DCS), SoHHytec (green hydrogen ARB artificial photosynthesis), and HOPPECKE (NiCd railway batteries). Manufacturing is anchored at a 75,000 m2 facility in Pune and a 159,000 m2 facility in Hyderabad, both with ASME and IBR certifications. The product portfolio spans complete sugar plants (800-20,000 TCD), cement plants (650-10,000 TPD), thermal power plants (CFBC, biomass, waste heat recovery, oil/gas boilers), mining and bulk material handling equipment, and emerging clean energy offerings.

The company generates revenue through one-time EPC contracts and turnkey plant solutions, supplemented by equipment and machinery supply and recurring service and after-sales support across the plant lifecycle. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting PSUs and private industrial conglomerates, supported by branch offices in Chennai, Kolkata, New Delhi, and Vadodara. Following an ownership restructuring and rebrand from thyssenkrupp Industries India in February-July 2024, TKIL has actively expanded into green hydrogen (via SoHHytec partnership and equity investment) and railway battery energy storage (via exclusive HOPPECKE partnership), repositioning itself as an integrated clean energy and industrial EPC platform.
