India's industrial growth story is no longer defined by capacity expansion alone. As steel, mining, metals, power, and infrastructure projects become larger and more technologically demanding, industries are seeking engineering partners capable of delivering integrated solutions rather than standalone design services.
Engineering today extends beyond drawings and calculations, it requires multidisciplinary expertise, project management excellence, digital capabilities, and increasingly, the ability to develop indigenous technologies that reduce dependence on imports. Backed by the Make in India initiative, this shift has created opportunities for engineering firms that combine technical depth with innovation to strengthen the country's industrial self-reliance.
It is within this evolving landscape that FTS Group has established itself as a trusted engineering and consultancy partner. Founded in Kolkata in 2006, the company has grown into a multidisciplinary organization with more than 125 engineers, a presence across 16 countries, and over 400 completed projects spanning steel, mining, power, cement, and heavy engineering industries.
From engineering design and project management to technology development and equipment innovation, FTS Group has steadily expanded its capabilities while remaining committed to delivering practical engineering solutions tailored to industrial needs.
A Vision That Shaped the Journey
Every successful engineering organization is built on more than technical competence; it is driven by a vision that defines its direction. For FTS Group, that vision came from its Founder and Managing Director, Anupam Sinha, who established the company with a clear objective: to build an engineering organization capable of delivering world-class solutions while reducing India's dependence on imported technologies.
“From the very beginning, the focus was not simply on offering consultancy services but on creating a multidisciplinary engineering ecosystem that could support industries from concept to commissioning. That philosophy has guided the company's growth over the past nineteen years”, speaks Anupam Sinha, Managing Director.
The journey reflects a series of carefully built milestones. The establishment of its Engineering & Development Centre in 2009 strengthened its in-house engineering capabilities, while a major engineering assignment for NMDC's 1.6 MTPA Pellet Plant with Tata Projects demonstrated the company's ability to execute complex industrial projects.
The years that followed saw the establishment of its corporate office, the formation of FTS Consultants Pvt. Ltd., completion of landmark engineering projects in bulk material handling, blast furnace engineering and iron ore beneficiation, and the inauguration of a dedicated R&D Centre.
Most recently, securing a prestigious order from Rungta Mines for the design, manufacture and supply of indigenous Centrifugal Casting Machines for a ductile iron pipe manufacturing plant marked another significant milestone in the company's evolution. Today, with more than 400 engineering projects completed, FTS Group's growth reflects consistent capability building rather than rapid expansion alone.
Building Capability Beyond Consultancy
Today, FTS Group delivers engineering, research and development, and project management solutions across process engineering, civil and structural engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical systems, automation and instrumentation, piping and utilities, and retrofit engineering. Its multidisciplinary model enables clients to engage a single engineering partner throughout the project lifecycle, from feasibility studies and conceptual design to detailed engineering, procurement support, site management and commissioning.
“This integrated approach not only simplifies project execution but also improves coordination between disciplines, reduces implementation risks, and ensures accountability throughout complex industrial projects. It is this ability to combine diverse engineering expertise within one organization that has become one of FTS Group's defining strengths”, adds Anupam Sinha.
Innovation That Creates Industrial Value
Guided by its dedicated R&D team, FTS Group has focused on developing indigenous engineering solutions that address real industrial challenges while supporting the broader objectives of Make in India. Its customer-friendly Centrifugal Casting Machine for ductile iron pipe manufacturing represents one of its most significant achievements, providing Indian manufacturers with a reliable alternative to imported technologies.
The company's innovation efforts extend beyond a single product. It continues to develop customized industrial equipment, retrofit and augmentation solutions, robotic systems for hot metal handling, specialized scrap feeding systems, and application-specific engineering solutions that improve productivity, reliability and operational efficiency. Rather than viewing research and development as a separate function, FTS Group integrates innovation into its engineering practice, enabling customers to adopt technologies designed specifically for their operational requirements.
Engineering the Future with Confidence
Over nearly two decades, FTS Group has expanded its presence across steel and metallurgy, iron making, mining and mineral processing, bulk material handling, substations, industrial electrical systems, pollution control, and equipment development. Its growing portfolio of projects and long-standing relationships with leading organizations including Tata Projects, Larsen & Toubro, ArcelorMittal, JSW, Hindalco, Vedanta, Siemens, Primetals Technologies, and several other industrial leaders reflect the confidence the company has earned through consistent technical excellence and dependable execution. Today, with more than 400 engineering projects completed, FTS Group's growth reflects consistent capability building rather than rapid expansion alone
Looking ahead, Anupam Sinha envisions FTS Group evolving into a globally respected multinational engineering company of Indian origin, driven by innovation, integrity and engineering excellence. As industries increasingly prioritize efficiency, sustainability and technological self-reliance, the company remains committed to delivering engineering solutions that create lasting value while strengthening India's position as a global engineering and manufacturing powerhouse.
With nearly two decades of experience and a strong culture of innovation, FTS Group is not merely participating in India's industrial transformation; it is helping engineer its future.
