Key Highlights:
Schwing Stetter India, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Germany's Schwing Group, plans to offer 16 new items and 14 variants this year to fill gaps in its product portfolio and meet specific customer needs.
The new launches will cover all five segments in which the company operates, with a strong emphasis on concreting equipment, which accounts for 56% of total revenue. The company specializes in concrete, construction, material handling, mining, and foundation equipment.
Schwing Stetter India's Chairman and Managing Director Sakthikumar VG stated that the growth is consistent with the company's strategy of identifying and capitalising on market shortages in India's construction equipment landscape. He noted that the company's long-term goal is to localize manufacturing as demand grows.
"We are playing a major role in identifying the gap in the Indian industry across all five areas where we can accelerate progress with specific imported machines in the short term," Sakthikumar told reporters.
The planned product introductions follow a period of strong financial performance for Schwing Stetter India. In 2023, the company generated a net profit of Rs 106.89 crore, up 30.5% from Rs 81.90 crore in 2022. Revenue increased by 37.7% to Rs 5,395.77 crore from Rs 3,919.26 crore in the previous year.
Last year, the company debuted 25 new items and versions, with the entire sales potential predicted to be realized in 2024.
The Indian Construction Equipment Manufacturers Association (ICEMA) reported in its most recent report that the construction equipment industry grew by 26% year on year (YoY) with 1,35,650 units sold, exceeding all expectations during FY24, compared to 1,07,779 units the previous fiscal year.
Schwing Stetter India's aggressive expansion ambitions, together with its solid financial performance and India's burgeoning construction equipment market, point to a positive growth trajectory for the industry in the coming years.
