Anand Group's M&A Vision Unveiled by Anjali Singh

Anjali Singh, chairman of Anand Group, lays out a bold plan for the company's future, aiming for a revenue target of Rs 50,000 crore by 2030. With a firm focus on partnerships, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and innovation-driven growth, Singh highlights the company's reliance on joint ventures such as Inalfa to achieve rapid growth and efficient market access. While acknowledging a gradual progression towards M&A, with announcements expected by 2025, Singh believes partnerships will remain key through 2026. The group's strategy is guided by customer demands, with a significant drive towards backward integration and localisation, especially as India positions itself as a major manufacturing base for global exports. Singh also discusses the establishment of Anevolve, Anand's electric mobility arm, and their intent to focus on emerging EV and autonomous vehicle segments. With plans to expand the product range of Gabriel, the flagship company within the group, the Anand Group is set to balance its localisation and globalisation efforts adeptly. Singh concludes with confidence in India's growing role as a top manufacturing hub supported by government initiatives and local talents.
