Neetu Yoshi Company is a foundry with an integrated CNC machine shop, engaged in the manufacturing of customised ferrous metallurgical products. The product range spans mild steel, spheroidal graphite iron, cast iron, and manganese steel, catering to finished products weighing between 0.2 kg to 500 kg.

The company is a Class “A” RDSO-certified vendor, approved for manufacturing and supplying over 25 casting components to Indian Railways.

Established in 2020 as a trading firm supplying specific grade raw materials to OEMs of Indian Railways, the company transitioned into manufacturing by setting up a rented facility in Rudrapur, equipped with CNC machines. Initially involved in machining of outsourced casted, fabricated, and forged parts, the firm gradually moved towards full-scale metallurgical engineering by setting up its own manufacturing plant.

The manufacturing facility is equipped with melting, pouring, moulding, core making, sand preparation, fettling, machining, heat treatment, fabrication, forging, and painting capabilities—ensuring an end-to-end production process.

Given the sensitivity of casting to raw material properties, the company has established in-house testing facilities to examine raw materials and finished products. These include chemical composition analysis, load testing, radiography, ultrasonic testing, tensile and yield strength tests, elongation, bend tests, impact testing, microstructure analysis, magnetic particle inspection, and liquid penetration inspection, ensuring compliance with customer-specific and industry standards.

As on March 31, 2025, the comapny had workforce of 86 employees including senior management. The Bankers to the Company are Small Industries Development Bank of India and Central Bank of India.

India Metal Casting Market Overview

The Indian metal casting market was valued at USD 12,473 million in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 21,252 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.8% during 2024–2032. Metal casting involves pouring molten metal into moulds to form specific geometries and is widely used for the mass production of complex components, particularly with low-melting-point alloys like aluminium, zinc, copper, and magnesium.

India ranks among the largest metal casting markets in the Asia-Pacific region, primarily due to its cost-effectiveness and ability to minimize metal waste. Key growth drivers include the increasing demand for lightweight vehicles, rising consumer incomes, and the expansion of the automotive, industrial, and construction sectors. Metal castings are integral to the production of home appliances, surgical tools, aircraft components, and automotive parts. Additionally, growing environmental awareness is further accelerating market adoption due to casting’s sustainability advantages.

Indian Railway Industry Overview

India operates the fourth-largest railway system in the world, managed centrally under the Railway Board, and plays a vital role in both passenger mobility and freight transport. The network is known for its affordability, reach, and energy efficiency, making it a cornerstone of long-distance travel and bulk goods movement across the nation.

To modernize infrastructure, the Government of India has implemented several investor-friendly policies, including the liberalization of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in railways. Both domestic and global companies are increasingly participating in Indian rail projects.

Recent innovations include semi-high-speed trains like Vande Bharat, which offer features such as automated doors, high-speed travel (up to 160 kmph), onboard infotainment, GPS-based systems, and modern bio-toilets. Indian Railways also aims to export these 'Made in India' trains to Europe, South America, and East Asia by 2025–26, positioning itself as a global railway technology provider.

Indian Railway Equipment Market Overview

The Indian Railway Equipment market was valued at USD 12.31 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.61% in the coming years. The sector's growth is being fueled by government initiatives focused on modernization and safety, including major infrastructure projects like the Dedicated Freight Corridor and High-Speed Rail Project.

There is rising demand for advanced signalling systems, train control mechanisms, and upgraded rolling stock, as these technologies improve operational reliability and passenger safety. The integration of smart technologies, including real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance, is expected to boost overall performance, reduce downtime, and contribute to the evolution of a smart, efficient railway ecosystem.

1. Dependence on Single Manufacturing Facility
Operations are entirely reliant on a single manufacturing facility in Bhagwanpur, Uttarakhand, spread over 7,173 sq. meters. Any disruption, breakdown, or shutdown due to equipment failure, power outages, natural disasters, political unrest, labour issues, or regulatory directives may adversely affect production, cash flows, and customer relationships.

2. Heavy Reliance on Indian Railways
A major portion of revenue is derived from customers linked to Indian Railways. Any decline in order inflow, delays in project execution, or budgetary constraints within the Indian Railways sector could have a direct impact on business performance.

3. Exposure to Infrastructure Investment Cycles
Business growth is closely tied to infrastructure development, particularly Railway infrastructure in India. Any slowdown in public spending, changes in government policies, or delayed investments could negatively influence revenue and growth prospects.

4. Limited Manufacturing Track Record
Manufacturing operations commenced only in 2023, indicating limited operational experience. Risks include inexperienced staff, potential product development delays, and initial operational inefficiencies. However, RDSO certifications and other accreditations support the current quality and operational standards.

Neetu Yoshi Company faces key risks related to single-location dependence, client concentration in the Indian Railways sector, limited manufacturing experience, and exposure to macroeconomic and policy changes. While operations have been stable, these risks could materially impact future performance if not effectively managed.
