Supplying Microsoft, Amazon, and the World: APAR’s Global Playbook
Not an EPC player. Not a cable assembler. APAR is building the core grid components powering India's infrastructure and the world's data centers.
India's power infra is being rewired and one quiet player is supplying the core.
While most infra companies chase tenders and contracts, APAR Industries is building the invisible core of the global electrification wave.
With a premium product mix, global clients like Microsoft and Amazon, and deep backward integration—it’s time APAR got rerated.
1. Infra DNA: Engineering, Not Executing
What makes APAR structurally different? It doesn’t chase projects; it powers them.
Not involved in project execution or EPC contracts
Core focus: transmission enablers, conductors, transformer oils, and specialty cables
Gain exposure to the global electrification cycle without the noise of low-bid project tenders.
“APAR is not into EPC or project execution. We are a component-focused infra backbone … conductors, cables, and specialty oils.”
2. Self-Reliant Infrastructure: Deep Backward Integration
APAR owns and operates its critical supply chain.
In-house aluminum rod manufacturing
Transformer oil blending terminals (India + UAE)
Advanced e-beam and specialty cable units
Margin insulation and consistent quality through vertical integration.
“We manufacture our own aluminum rods, blend transformer oils in-house, and run e-beam lines. This gives us unmatched control over quality and cost.”
3. Trust of the Titans: Global Client Stickiness
APAR’s roster includes the world’s most demanding clients:
Microsoft: Listed as a global approved vendor
Direct suppliers to Amazon, Google, Adani, and several U.S. utilities
Deep institutional relationships drive long-cycle order visibility.
“We are now on Microsoft’s global vendor list. Our teams are also directly working with Amazon and Google for data center infrastructure.”
4. Export Infrastructure Edge
Exporting to 100+ countries
FY25 U.S. revenue projected at ₹1,600 Cr
Bulk infra via JNPT + UAE terminals for cable/oil exports
A robust export engine hedges India-only macro risk.
“US is bouncing back ₹1,600 Cr in FY25. Bulk infra at JNPT and UAE ensures seamless export flows for cables and oils.”
5. Product Depth = Moat
46% of conductors are now premium (CTC, AL-59)
Cable business increasingly UL-certified, defense- and renewables-focused
Higher-margin product mix reduces price-led competition.
“Over 45% of our conductor volumes are now premium grade. Our cables business is increasingly UL-approved and defense-focused.”
6. Balanced Powertrain: Revenue Across Verticals
FY25 Revenue Split (Projected):
Conductors: ₹9,582 Cr
Oils: ₹5,087 Cr
Cables: ₹4,945 Cr
No single business line dominates—broad-based and stable growth.
“All three businesses—conductors, oils, and cables—are contributing. Cables are growing faster, but all are margin-accretive.”
7. Innovation-Led Durability
Proprietary innovations include:
Anushakti e-beam wires
Zero-halogen, windmill, and CTC conductors
Defense-grade and renewables-focused products
Spec-based competitive moat vs commodity pricing wars.
“Our Anushakti cables (e-beam) grew 37%. We also launched high-end, zero-halogen, long-life products for defense and renewables.”

8. Capex with Foresight
Planned Capex: ₹1,300 Cr (FY26–27)
₹800 Cr – New 48-acre greenfield cable site
₹300 Cr – Premium conductor expansion
₹200 Cr – Oil logistics upgrade
Capacity expansion aligned before the demand wave hits.
“We’ve lined up ₹1,300 Cr capex: ₹800 Cr for new cable capacity, ₹300 Cr for premium conductors, and ₹200 Cr for oil infra. All proactive, not reactive.”
9. China-Resilient Strategy
APAR competes where specifications matter, not just price:
Avoids subsidy-driven tenders dominated by China
Wins on quality, performance, and client trust
Protects return on equity from race-to-the-bottom pricing.
“Chinese pricing is aggressive, but our spec-based cables and conductors are winning orders where quality matters more than price.”
10. Global Electrification Multiplier
Exploring manufacturing in the U.S.
Expanding into renewables, defense, and hyperscale data centers
Multiple secular tailwinds + optionality for global rerating
“We’re evaluating US manufacturing, expanding into renewables and defense. Our goal is to be an electrification partner, not just a vendor.”
Microcap Mavericks View
APAR Industries is not a cyclical trade—it’s a structural compounder:
Vertically integrated
Premium product portfolio
Global clientele across data, defense, and energy
₹1,300 Cr capex tailwind already in motion
Not a tender chaser. An electrification enabler.
Not low-bid driven. Spec-and-tech-led.
Rerating? Structural, not cyclical.
