Top 12: Battery manufacturers in IndiaTotal Views: 13,743Rating: 4.0/5 (25 votes cast)

The battery industry in India that

comprises automobile, sealed maintenance free (SMF), tubular and lead acidbatteries, has been registering an annual growth rate of 25 per cent year on year.

While China still remains the worlds largest battery market, India is expected toregister the strongest growth in sales by 2014. Demand for Indian batteries from

importers worldwide has increased and to meet this, Indian manufacturers are also

gearing up. The main sectors in which demand is expected to grow in 2012 are

solar, telecom, automation and power conditioning.

Recognising the growth being witnessed by the battery industry, Electronics

Bazaarhas decided to rank the Top 12 Battery Manufacturers on the basis of their

revenues for the FY 2010-11, which was verified from the website of the Ministryof Corporate Affairs (MCA), Government of India.

Some major companies could not be included in the ranking as they declined toshare their revenue figures with us, nor could their balance sheets be accessed on

the MCA website. We did not include companies who are exclusively/extensively

into manufacturing automotive batteries.While this survey is by no means comprehensive, it does provide a glimpse intomany of Indias key battery manufacturers.
