What Teknow Overseas Private Limited does

Teknow Overseas Private Limited is a New Delhi-headquartered Indian private limited company, part of the Teknow Group, operating as a specialist industrial civil construction contractor since 1977. The company executes complex civil works for thermal power plants and high-voltage transmission infrastructure across India, with a primary focus on four service lines: slip-form RCC chimneys up to 275 meters in height, dry ash silos and ash handling systems using hydraulic slip-form shuttering, turbine generator civil works and foundations for power generation units up to 800 MW, and electric transmission/distribution substations ranging from 66 kV up to 765 kV. Supporting capabilities include circulating water systems (steel and RCC ducts), coal handling plant civil works, cooling tower foundations, and limited commercial turnkey construction.

Underlying the offering is specialized expertise in hydraulic slip-form shuttering technology, an established site laboratory and quality assurance infrastructure, and a track record accumulated over 48 years across marquee Indian CPSU clients including NTPC, Power Grid Corporation of India, BHEL, and UPRVUNL. Revenue is generated through project-based, quote-driven one-time contracts awarded via competitive bidding on large infrastructure packages. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting power generation companies, state power utilities, and industrial clients; projects are executed across at least seven Indian states. The company operates with a lean central overhead (8 listed employees), with project execution labor likely sourced through subcontractors in line with Indian civil EPC norms. No external funding, M&A activity, or international expansion is evidenced; the firm is founder/family-controlled within the Teknow Group conglomerate structure.
