Leo Primecomp

What Leo Primecomp does

Leo Primecomp Pvt Ltd is a Chennai-based, founder-owned precision components manufacturer established in 1984. The company produces machined and turned ferrous and non-ferrous components across an unusually wide dimensional envelope — from 1 gram to 120 tons in weight and 3mm to 3,000mm in diameter — across six manufacturing plants in Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry. Core technology centers on multi-axis CNC turning and milling, Swiss-type auto lathes, temperature-controlled CNC grinding shops achieving sub-micron tolerances, and ZEISS/MAHR metrology, supported by Unigraphix, Master Cam, and Del Cam CAD/CAM tools.

The company serves enterprise OEMs in automotive (fuel injection, steering, turbo charger, common rail parts), hydraulics (front and back loader control valves), medical (1,000+ component varieties with sub-assemblies), electrical and electronics (banking automation peripherals), power (steam, wind, and gas turbine components), aerospace (titanium, nickel-superalloy, special-steel turned parts), air conditioning, and compressor applications. Revenue is generated through quote-based B2B manufacturing contracts with tier-1 OEM and tier-1 supplier customers, with multi-year engagements, exported to 17 countries across Europe, Latin America, the United States, the Middle East, and China.

The business is promoter-led by Chairman A. Balakumar and Managing Director A. Vasudevan, both mechanical engineers with over three decades of precision manufacturing experience, supported by a team of 500. Heavy engineering operations (Plant VI, Gummidipundi) were placed into a 2024 joint venture with Azad Engineering Ltd, rebranded as Azad Prime Pvt Ltd. The firm holds IATF 16949:2016 and ISO 9001:2015 certifications across multiple plants, with ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 held at the JV, and has publicly stated targets of Rs. 500 Crores turnover by 2029-30 and an IPO by 2028-29.
