NRB Bearings Limited has greenlit a ₹200 crore investment plan aimed at expanding and upgrading its manufacturing capabilities at facilities in Jalna, Chikalthana, Waluj, and Hyderabad. The expansion, set to roll out over the next two years, is designed to meet rising demand in both Indian and global markets.
It is expected to boost production capacity by 15% to 25% across various product categories, with specific increases based on customer needs. The company plans to begin operationalizing the new capacity—particularly in grinding processes—from the fourth quarter of FY 2026–2027, pending necessary approvals and equipment deliveries.
Funding for the initiative will be supported through a combination of internal reserves and borrowings. In addition to the investment approval, the company announced the appointment of Kishor Harish Talreja as its new Company Secretary and Compliance Officer, effective April 25, 2025. Talreja, a Fellow Member of the Institute of Company Secretaries of India and a graduate in law and commerce from Mumbai University, brings over two decades of experience in corporate compliance and governance. His previous roles include senior positions at Jai Corp Limited and Borosil Renewables Limited.
Talreja will join the senior management team as a Key Managerial Personnel (KMP) and will also be responsible—alongside Vice-Chairman & Managing Director Harshbeena Zaveri and CFO Raman Malhotra—for identifying and disclosing material events to the stock exchanges.
The Board also approved the appointment of Upendra Shukla & Associates as the company’s Secretarial Auditor for a five-year term starting from FY 2025–2026 through FY 2029–2030.
