The foundry industry is a key contributor to the global manufacturing sector and has experienced steady growth over the past decade. Growth in the foundry industry has been driven by increasing demand for castings from a variety of end-use industries, including automotive, construction, and energy. Established in 1980, VKA Group has transformed from a small, family-owned business into a respected global company with a strong reputation for exceptional customer service. Specializing in casting and heat treatment, VKA Group has gained the trust of various manufacturing industries including seamless tubes, automotive, steel, forging, and mining.
The foundry industry in India is expected to experience growth due to increased demand for alternatives to China and India's strong engineering background and abundance of cheap, skilled labor. However, the industry currently faces challenges with fluctuating raw material prices and a lack of professionals willing to work in the industry. VKA Group is addressing these challenges by maintaining a stable inventory and investing in internal training programs. Customers today expect consistent quality, timely delivery, and competitive prices, which can be met through the implementation of advanced technology, the utilization of industry-leading foundry practices, and the establishment of streamlined processes.
The VKA group is a dominant player in the Indian market, with a strong presence in various product segments.
They have a large customer base, serving over 500 clients in 35 cities across India. This solid foundation will enable the company to expand its reach internationally, increasing revenue significantly. “Our group stands out from the competition due to several key factors, one of which is our versatility in terms of casting processes.
We have experience and expertise in a variety of techniques, including vacuum-based molding, no-bake, green sand, and shell sand. This allows us to choose the most appropriate method for each individual casting project, resulting in consistently high-quality results”, shares Prabal Aggarwal, Director (Design & Technology), VKA Group.
VKA Group houses two foundries that specialize in distinct casting types. Aurangabad Metal produces wear-resistant parts for the mining and pipe sectors that feature superior durability and cost-effectiveness, thanks to the guidance of experienced consultants and advanced heat treatment processes. Meanwhile, Aggarwal Sound cast specializes in heat-resistant castings for the automotive industry and has achieved optimal quality and cost savings by utilizing a unique, advanced vacuum-based molding system. This cutting-edge technology allows Aggarwal Soundcast Pvt. Ltd to produce a higher-quality product at a lower cost.
The VKA Group began its journey by manufacturing products with a small team of employees and a yearly revenue of a few lacs. Initially, the company relied heavily on a limited number of customers for its success. In 1996, the company saw a new generation join its ranks and made a significant investment in machinery to improve the quality and volume of its products. VKA Group utilized application-based engineering techniques to understand specific requirements and usage of its products by customers, resulting in the ability to deliver improved offerings. The company invests continuously in new technologies and processes to create high-quality and economical products to maintain its leadership position.

VKA Group has already established a notable presence in the production of heat treatment trays, fixtures for the automotive component industry, and tooling for the seamless tube industry. With this in mind, it is now focusing its attention on wear parts for the mining industry and broadening its range of castings for the waste incineration and steel industries. As a result, the company has taken steps to increase its capacity at both plants by investing in new machines and infrastructure to meet the growing demand for these products.
