Quality Power Electrical Equipments Ltd has announced the acquisition of a 76 per cent equity stake in Veeral Controls Pvt Ltd, a Gandhinagar-based company with over three decades of experience in high current power electronics and industrial power conversion systems.
Founded in 1993 by Varunesh Kumar, an IIT alumnus, Veeral Controls specialises in the design and manufacture of high current rectifier systems, locomotive and traction power conversion equipment, and defence grade power electronics, a release by Quality Power said.
Veeral Controls delivers Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) and Silicon Controller Rectifier (SCR) based rectifiers, converter stacks, and high current power supplies for demanding applications across hydrogen production, railways, heavy industry, nuclear facilities, and strategic defence installations.
Mission-critical systems
Veeral Controls has executed mission-critical systems, including rectifier platforms rated up to 72 kA, high voltage power nuclear grade power supplies, and traction conversion systems where electrical reliability and precise current control are essential, the release noted.
Strategic Rationale
The acquisition expands Quality Power Group’s presence in medium voltage industrial power electronics, strengthening its capabilities in high current rectification and process level power conversion. These technologies complement the Group’s existing portfolio of high voltage grid equipment, Power quality systems, and FACTS solutions.
High current rectifiers are core to applications such as green hydrogen electrolysers, electro chemical processing, locomotive traction, and defence power systems. Integrating these platforms enables Quality Power to offer more comprehensive electrical solutions while creating pull through demand for its products including transformers, reactors, harmonic filters, and instrument transformers. The integration also strengthens power quality capabilities through Endoks, aligning industrial power conversion with advanced harmonic mitigation and dynamic compensation, the release observed.
Customer Base
Veeral Controls serves a diversified customer base including ABB/Hitachi, BHEL, BARC, Indian Railways, Indian Navy, Heavy Water Board, DRDO, Tata Power, Tata Steel, Renew Power among others, with systems supplied across India, Europe, the United States, Australia and the Middle East, the release added.
