MAN Industries (India) Limited, a leading manufacturer of large diameter pipes, has made a significant stride in its global expansion journey with the announcement of a massive export order worth ₹1,150 crores. This recent development not only highlights the company’s technological prowess and market credibility but also reinforces its standing as a preferred supplier in the international pipeline industry.
A Legacy of Excellence: Company Background
MAN Industries (India) Limited is the flagship company of the diversified MAN Group, which was founded by the Mansukhani family in 1970. Initially starting as an aluminum extruder in 1988, MAN Industries has undergone a remarkable transformation to become a leading player in the pipeline industry.
Over the years, the company has specialized in manufacturing and exporting large diameter carbon steel pipes, including LSAW (Longitudinal Submerged Arc Welded), HSAW (Helical Submerged Arc Welded), and ERW (Electric Resistance Welded) pipes. These pipes are primarily used in high-pressure applications across industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, water transmission, fertilizers, and city gas distribution (CGD).
Manufacturing Footprint and Capacity
MAN Industries operates three state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities:
- Anjar, Gujarat (Facility 1): Equipped with two LSAW and two HSAW lines.
- Anjar, Gujarat (Facility 2): Dedicated to ERW pipes for both API and Non-API standards.
- Pithampur, Madhya Pradesh: Supporting the company’s vast production needs.
Together, these facilities boast a total installed capacity of over 1.18 million tonnes per annum (MTPA), enabling the company to meet the growing global demand efficiently.
In addition to its existing capabilities, MAN Industries is now expanding further by entering the stainless-steel seamless pipe segment with a new plant in Jammu. Furthermore, the company is setting up a large-scale facility in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, with an estimated investment of ₹600 crores. This upcoming plant will include a coating unit and cater specifically to the increasing demand in the Middle East region.
Highlight: ₹1,150 Crore Export Order
On June 5, 2025, MAN Industries announced a landmark export order valued at approximately ₹1,150 crores. The order involves supplying various types of pipes to a prestigious international client and is expected to be executed within the next 6 to 12 months.
This major order showcases the company’s strong global reach and its ability to meet complex project requirements. With this order, MAN Industries’ unexecuted order book now stands at approximately ₹3,500 crores, indicating strong future revenue visibility and sustained customer confidence.
Mr. Nikhil Mansukhani, Managing Director, commented,
“The start of the year is proving exceptionally strong for MAN Industries, highlighted by multiple orders totalling approx. ₹3,500 crores. These are a testament to our steadfast focus on delivering product excellence and timely deliveries.”
Strategic Growth and Global Vision
As of March 31, 2025, MAN Industries’ unexecuted order book stood at approximately ₹2,100 crore, expected to be executed within the next six months. The company also reported a net cash position of ₹174.4 crore, a significant improvement from a net debt position of ₹125.1 crore as of March 31, 2024.
MAN Industries’ journey is marked by its continuous pursuit of excellence, technological innovation, and market diversification. The company’s proactive investment in capacity expansion and product innovation ensures that it remains competitive in the rapidly evolving infrastructure and energy sectors.
Its presence in both domestic and international markets, coupled with timely execution and adherence to quality standards, has positioned MAN Industries as a global player in pipeline solutions.
The strategic establishment of a manufacturing facility in Saudi Arabia is especially noteworthy, given the rising infrastructure and energy investments in the Middle East. This move not only brings MAN Industries closer to its clients in that region but also gives it a strong cost advantage and enhanced logistics efficiency.
