Atlanta Electricals received PGCIL approval for up to 400 kV class transformer manufacturing at its Vadod, Gujarat facility.
The milestone was achieved within two years of groundbreaking, with NABL accreditation for in-house testing already secured last year.
The dual PGCIL and NABL approvals position AEL for large EHV tenders, targeting peak 63,000 MVA facility utilization.
The development aligns with India's INR 9.6 trillion transmission capex pipeline through 2032, supporting renewable energy evacuation.
