R R Kabel Limited IPO

Established in 1995, R R Kabel Limited is a provider of consumer electrical products designed for residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure applications.

R R Kabel operates in two main segments:

1. Wires and Cables, which encompass house wires, industrial wires, power cables, and special cables.

In 2022, the company further strengthened its FMEG portfolio by acquiring the home electrical business (HEB) of Luminous Power Technologies Private Limited. This acquisition granted R R Kabel a limited and exclusive license to use the Luminous Fans and Lights brand for fan and light products for up to four years, with an option for renewal. It also included rights to use 61 registered trademarks and a portfolio of lights and premium fans.

R R Kabel operates two manufacturing units in Waghodia, Gujarat, and Silvassa, Dadra and Nagar Haveli, and Daman and Diu, primarily focused on wire and cable manufacturing and switches. Additionally, the company owns and operates three integrated manufacturing facilities in Roorkee, Uttarakhand; Bengaluru, Karnataka; and Gagret, Himachal Pradesh, specializing in FMEG product manufacturing.
