NRB Bearings Limited has approved a capital investment of approximately INR 2 billion to upgrade and enhance manufacturing capacity across its facilities at Jalna, Chikalthana, Waluj, Hyderabad, and its R&D Centre. The company announced that the expansion is aimed at addressing increasing customer demand and will cover various bearing product lines.
The proposed expansion is expected to increase production capacity by 15% to 25%, depending on the product mix. The enhancement is planned to be completed over two years, with operations from the new capacities anticipated to begin in the fourth quarter of the 2026-2027 financial year, subject to necessary approvals and machine deliveries. The investment will be financed through a combination of debt and internal accruals.

Some parts of the expansion, such as grinding capacity, will support multiple product lines.
