Shakti Pumps (India) Ltd. has announced that the company has invested INR 12 crore in its wholly-owned subsidiary Shakti Energy Solutions Ltd., which is establishing a greenfield high efficiency solar DCR cell and solar PV modules manufacturing plant in Pithampur, Madhya Pradesh, with a production capacity of 2.20 GW.

Madhya Pradesh Industrial Development Corporation (MPIDC) has sanctioned 113 acres of land to Shakti Energy Solutions, located at Smart Industrial Township, Sector-7, Pithampur, for the said plant.

During an investor call, the company's Chairman, Dinesh Patidar, expressed confidence in achieving 20-25 percent growth in the current market conditions but highlighted the shortage of DCR cell-based modules as a limiting factor.

To address this, the company, in February 2025, tied up with ReNew Photovoltaic for an additional supply of DCR cell-based solar modules worth INR 1,300 crore for FY 2025-26. This is in addition to the existing partnership with Mundra Solar (Adani) and Premier Energies for the supply of DCR cell-based Solar modules.

Now, with this backward integration, the company is striving for greater control over the supply chain and solidify its position in the solar pumps market.

Shakti Pumps has reported an 83.6 percent jump in FY25 revenue to INR 25,162 million, driven by strong domestic and export performance and improved margins. The company’s Profit after Tax (PAT) increased to INR 4,084 Mn in FY25 from INR 1,417 million in FY24.
