What Khodiyar eSolutions does

Khodiyar eSolutions Pvt. Ltd. (KES) is a Gujarat-headquartered engineering services company founded in 2020 as the primary operating entity of the Khodiyar Group, which traces its origins to Khodiyar CAD Centre established in 2003. The company delivers CAD/CAM/CAE design, BIM modeling, 3D visualization, AR/VR immersive solutions, digital twin services, plant engineering, and interior design services to industrial, architecture/engineering/construction (AEC), and product visualization clients. Its technology stack spans Autodesk (AutoCAD, Revit, Inventor), Ansys (FEA/CFD), SolidWorks, PTC, Unity, Chaos (V-Ray/Corona), and adjacent engineering platforms, with proprietary service methodologies around BIM coordination, digital twin implementation, and offshore dedicated engineering staffing.

The company operates a three-pillar business model. First, engineering consultancy services are billed through project-based contracts, time-and-materials engagements, and dedicated man-month staffing for CAD/BIM/CAE work. Second, software resale generates margins through authorized Value Added Reseller (VAR) agreements with Autodesk, Ansys, SolidWorks, PTC, Adobe, IBM, Hexagon, Trimble, Unity, Chaos, Formlabs, and MakerBot. Third, KES eAcademy generates fee-based training revenue across CAD/CAM/CAE, BIM, AR/VR, and 3D printing disciplines with placement assistance. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales with channel partner co-marketing, supported by an in-house content marketing engine and university MoU pipelines in Gujarat.

KES positions itself as a 'glocal' (global-local) engineering partner serving both Indian industrial and AEC clients and select international customers, leveraging the parent group's 17+ years of operating history. The firm holds ISO 27001-aligned security posture, has received partner awards from SolidWorks, Autodesk, and PTC University, and maintains offices in Ahmedabad, Vadodara, and Rajkot. The company remains privately held by founder Dr. Nimesh Patel with no disclosed external funding or institutional investors.

Direct peers

• Cyient: Indian engineering services company delivering design, manufacturing, and digital transformation across aerospace, automotive, and AEC. Matches KES's offshore engineering services model, Autodesk/Ansys-aligned tooling, and digital twin offerings.
• Onward Technologies: Mid-sized Indian mechanical engineering services and 3D CAD firm serving automotive, industrial, and medical device clients. Comparable headcount, India delivery model, and focus on CAD/CAE/manufacturing engineering services.
• Tata Technologies: India-based engineering services and product design firm offering CAD/CAE, manufacturing engineering, and BIM to global automotive, aerospace, and industrial clients. Direct peer in offshore engineering services with overlapping CAD, FEA/CFD, and digital twin capabilities.
• AXISCADES Technologies: Bengaluru-headquartered engineering services firm providing product design, embedded systems, and digital manufacturing solutions. Comparable in scale (mid-size, India-headquartered) and capability stack, including CAD/CAE and digital twin services.
• Magnasoft Spatial Services: India-based 3D visualization, CAD/BIM, and GIS services firm serving AEC and industrial clients. Closest peer for KES's 3D visualization, walkthrough animation, and BIM service lines at a similar Indian mid-market scale.

Broad incumbents

• Larsen & Toubro Technology Services (LTTS): Large Indian engineering R&D and digital services firm with extensive AEC, plant engineering, and digital twin practices. Larger incumbent covering much of KES's addressable market with broader geographic and capability footprint.
• QuEST Global Engineering Services: Global engineering services firm with strong presence in India delivering mechanical design, FEA/CFD, manufacturing engineering, and digital twin solutions. Overlaps almost fully with KES's industrial engineering services vertical at much larger scale.
• HCLTech Engineering & R&D Services: Global IT and engineering services giant with dedicated ER&D practice covering CAD/CAE, PLM, embedded, and digital manufacturing. Broad incumbent operating at the same capability level as KES but with vastly greater scale.

Regional players

• Applied Software (now Graves Technology): Authorized Autodesk, SOLIDWORKS, and ANSYS VAR with engineering services and training division in North America. Closely mirrors KES's combined services-plus-VAR-plus-academy business model but in a different geography.
• KETIV Technologies: North American Autodesk VAR and engineering services firm combining software resale, training, and implementation services. Most direct comparable for KES's Khodiyar Infotech side (authorized VAR + training) but operating in the US market.
