In India, the solar industry will grow like anything in next decade or two. As the current govt. is also supporting renewable and the results are in front of us. India’s utility solar capacity grows 72 per cent in 2018. Now you can imagine the grown in coming years,” says Niket Shah, Managing Director, Mechatronik Technologies. A solar energy solution provider, Mechatronik specializes in Solar PV projects execution for Industry, Commercial and Residential as well. Housing a strong technocrat team, the company strongly believes in shaping the solar revolution. Carrying forward the rich Legacy and precise Project Execution of Mechatronik Group, Mechatronik Solar, since 2014, is building great success stories. It has successfully projected its capabilities in private and govt. sectors.

The Genesis
Mechatronik was established in June 2010 by Niket and one of his college friends. At that time, the focus was on the solar water heater and solar street for residential, commercial and industrial projects. Additionally, they carried out several projects for the govt. of Gujarat too. In 2014, the duo converted this firm into private limited with the belief that the future will change the game of the renewable industry. “With more than 1500 Installations of Solar water heater systems and more than 2500 Installations in Solar street lights in local Indian markets, now our entire centre of attention is solar rooftops and EPC solar projects,” informs Niket.

While initially, it was quite a task to convince customers to go for solar products because of less awareness and cost, there were also customers who believed in Mechatronik’s long-lasting and superior solar solutions. Eventually, with word-of-mouth publicity, the company’s solutions reached to a wider base of customers across Industry, Commercial and Residential purposes. Today, Mechatronik has more than 3000 happy customers in Gujarat itself and is widely known for its solar products range.

Being Better
Mechatronik has a team of 12 qualified engineers to serve all the customers in different departments varying from sales to service. The team is spearheaded by leaders, who are committed to actively participate in the growth of Solar in India. A balance of young and experienced, dynamic and traditional is what team Mechatronik can be defined as. “I personally feel and in fact follow the principle of work and fun balance. We have a team of an average age group of 28-30 years and so we are fairly comfortable with each in sharing our work and ideas. All of the team members

here know the value of customers and so everything is in place, “Niket mentions.

Since inception,Mechatronik has registered an exponential growth. In last year, the company acquired the business of 2 Cr and this year it is likely to cross 10Cr. “In the current year, we have started expanding in Punjab and Haryana. We are registered with both the govt. to do solar projects in their states. We have also started working with many govt. bodies,” he adds.

"With more than 1500 Installations of Solar water heater systems and more than 2500 Installations in Solar street lights in local Indian markets, now the company focuses on solar rooftops and EPC solar projects"

At present, the company has equity partners to grow its business and expansion. “In one or two years, we envision having SME IPO for expanding in other states or most probably doing solar projects in other countries too. In contrast with the past, solar rooftop industry is booming like never before and now we are concentrating on Solar PV only. So my idea is to keep updating ourselves as per the market changes. Also, expanding in other states will be a game changer for us,” smiles Niket.
