GE Vernova T&D India to Invest ₹806 Cr in Capacity Expansion

With an intense drive to consolidate the power transmission and grid infrastructure of India, GE Vernova T&D India has endorsed a significant investment worth 806 crores to increase manufacturing capacities in its prevailing plants in Vadodara, Hosur, and Padappai. The investment will be financed solely out of the internal accruals and should be completed within a period of three years, between the years 2026 and 2028.

The expansion will increase the capacity of transformers and reactors by more than 50 percent as per the stock exchange filing of the company, but GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear) and AIS (Air Insulated Switchgear) products are going to increase the capacity by up to 25 percent. The plan also includes setting up new manufacturing lines for air core reactors and bushings at the Hosur facility, further strengthening GE Vernova’s production ecosystem for critical power equipment.

In Q2 FY26, GE Vernova T&D India reported order bookings worth ₹16.1 billion, with key wins across 765 kV, 400 kV, and 220 kV GIS and AIS substations from private and renewable developers across Gujarat, Karnataka, and Maharashtra, alongside multiple export orders to Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Africa.
