Fenesta

What Fenesta does

Fenesta Building Systems is the windows-and-doors division of DCM Shriram Limited, a publicly listed Indian conglomerate (BSE: 523367) with group turnover of Rs 14,264 crore. Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Gurugram, Fenesta manufactures custom, precision-engineered uPVC and aluminium windows and doors, alongside designer, hybrid-material, and engineered wooden doors. Its technical platform is built around patented and proprietary features — a patented rain track system, fusion welded joints, a hurricane bar for storm resistance, multi-chambered profiles, and triple/glass glazing options — with products custom-manufactured per order rather than sold from stock.

Fenesta operates a hybrid go-to-market combining 9 company-owned Signature Studios, 400+ authorized partner showrooms, 20 sales support offices, and direct installation teams, reaching 900+ Indian cities and international markets including Nepal, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Kenya, and Ghana. Pricing is quote-based (not publicly disclosed), revenue is primarily one-time product sale plus installation, and the customer base is overwhelmingly long-tail residential homeowners with limited institutional exposure (e.g., XLRI, Sheyan International School, Ushasree Tea). The company also runs an architect engagement ecosystem via the Fenesta Ace Club and a nationwide Conclave series that has engaged 1,650+ architects across 1,140+ firms in 25 cities, and in May 2025 it acquired a 53% stake in hardware maker DNV Global for Rs 44 crore to verticalize hardware supply.
