Exicom Tele-Systems Limited inaugurated an integrated manufacturing facility in Hyderabad on March 16, 2026, marking one of the larger capital investments in India's power electronics sector in recent years. The plant, built at a cost of ₹216 crore, covers 2,80,000 square feet across 18.4 acres and is expected to create over 750 jobs in the region. The opening was attended by industry leaders from the telecom and EV sectors.

The facility will manufacture EV charging equipment, lithium-ion battery systems, and critical power solutions catering to a range of end markets, including electric mobility, telecom networks, data centres, and other infrastructure that requires uninterrupted power supply. The company said the plant increases its overall production capacity by 2.5 times in its first phase of operations, with expansion-ready infrastructure in place to accommodate future growth.

The plant is built around Industry 4.0 manufacturing principles, integrating automation, robotics, and digital traceability to support precision manufacturing at scale. It features an ISO 8 cleanroom environment for advanced power electronics assembly, alongside specialised testing infrastructure designed to validate product performance under real-world operating conditions. Exicom said it plans to establish what it describes as India's first EV charger interoperability testing centre at the site — a facility aimed at ensuring seamless compatibility between chargers and vehicles across different makes and models. In addition, the Hyderabad plant will manufacture Tritium's TRI-FLEX liquid-cooled power modules, bringing global EV charging technology into domestic production.

The facility holds a range of internationally recognised certifications, including IATF 16949 for automotive-grade quality management, ISO 9001:2015 for general quality management systems, ISO 14001:2015 for environmental management, and ISO 45001:2018 for occupational health and safety. These certifications are intended to position the plant's output as competitive not just in India but in global markets.

Anant Nahata, CEO and Managing Director of Exicom, described the plant as a reflection of the company's engineering philosophy. He said the facility brings together precision manufacturing, advanced automation, rigorous testing, and complete product traceability, and that these capabilities are designed to allow the company to innovate and scale with greater speed and confidence.

Sustainability considerations have been incorporated into both the design and operations of the campus. A 1 MW rooftop solar plant has been installed to offset a portion of the facility's energy consumption. The campus maintains 40% green cover, and has rainwater harvesting infrastructure along with a dedicated sewage treatment plant for water management. The facility has been designed to meet Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) certification standards.

Exicom, listed on both the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange, operates across the full EV charger value chain, covering both AC and DC charging segments. The company has sold over 1,33,000 chargers globally and has a commercial presence spanning India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, the United States, and Europe. Its critical power division also supplies power systems that support telecom infrastructure across communication networks.

The Hyderabad plant is being positioned as a key node in Exicom's broader manufacturing strategy, intended to strengthen India's power electronics production base at a time when domestic and export demand for EV charging infrastructure is rising.

India's EV sector has seen significant momentum in recent years, with government-backed programmes such as the PM E-DRIVE scheme and FAME subsidies driving adoption across two-wheelers, three-wheelers, and commercial vehicles. Public charging infrastructure has been identified as a key bottleneck in accelerating EV uptake, prompting both policy attention and private investment in manufacturing and deployment. Against this backdrop, investments in domestic charger production capacity carry implications not just for individual companies but for the broader pace at which India transitions away from fossil-fuel-based transportation.
