4. From the
Editor
ince time immemorial, the human race has survived,
Sgrown, and flourished on the basis of the energy produced,
established, and utilized. Power is an essential input for
socio-economic development and human welfare of any nation.
It has always been the key driver of human progress.
At present, the electricity sector of India is going through a
major transformation. To maintain the way of life and economic
development of society, the nation requires continuous access to
power at an affordable price. This undergoing significant change
is redefining the industry’s outlook. Sustained economic growth
is continually driving the power demand in India. The
government’s ‘Power for all’ initiative has accelerated the power
capacity of the country. As being an extremely regulated power
sector, policies and regulations are playing a pivotal role in the
development of this sector.
According to independent reports, the electricity production in
India has reached 1,050.3 Billion Units (BU) during FY19 (up to
January 2019). Renewable energy is emerging as a leading
alternative source of power in India. While the power sector has
witnessed a few success stories, it still has a long way to go. The
grid edge technologies are paving the way towards a new energy
system. The speed of adoption and the success in shaping the
transformation is unlocking the significant economic and societal
benefits.
Even, many of the emerging markets that may be less
encumbered by existing infrastructure, investments, or system
structure would gain the opportunity to surpass these challenges
and head straight to mass adoption of new-age technologies.
The industry overcomes all challenges and adapts numerous
immediate changes like an implementation of GST. The adoption
of new edge technologies in a positive way can offer a wide
range of reach for the electricity markets worldwide. Now, the
key expectation from the government is to create the stable and
clear policy environment that can facilitate long-term business
and investment planning.

20. Entrepreneurship is for the strong hearted. And life
only rewards those who work hard towards their
goal consistently”. Meet Vishal Anand, CEO-
VSPL Energy, Founder- Saints N Sinners & Partner- Farzi
Café, Aerocity, New Delhi.
In a candid conversation with Insight Success, Vishal shares
some very simple & basic thoughts & personal experiences
that would help every budding and new age entrepreneur.
He says, even if he is able to impact one person, it would be
an immense personal achievement.
Excerpts from his learning, the top seven lessons to be a
successful entrepreneur are-
1. The Power of “The First Step”
The human mind is unique in more ways than what we
can ever imagine. It is the birth place for such path-
breaking ideas that have the potential to surpass all
boundaries of success. What holds us back is “taking the
first step” in the direction. With the first step, you win
half the battle. Fear of social mockery, failure, the
cumbersomeness of the initiative, holds us back. Take
control of this. Don’t underestimate the power of this
step. Take it unabashedly. And the next ones would
flow. Also, it is your “Will” that would convert your
thoughts into actions, so nurture and strengthen it.
2. Don’t Think Too Much
Many a times, it is over analysis, nonstop mind chatter,
talking to too many people, taking too many view
points, that fizzles out the initiative. Think only that
much that would help you take a decision, to plan and to
execute flawlessly. Talk to handpicked people. Beyond
this, everything will be a dampner.
3. Articulate A Strong Vision & Build The Right
Culture.
The CEO has to be a visionary. The team would only
work upon his vision as the guiding light.
Take efforts to build the right culture in all matters,
small or big, for your organisation. In terms of systems,
procedures, commitments, ethics, trainings & so on.
From top to bottom, culturally, the entire team should
sail in the same direction. This would be a clear
differentiator towards building an ORGANISATION
viz a vis a mere company.
4. The Power of Information & Keeping Abreast With
the Latest Technologies.
The business world demands constant change of
approach. With the CEO as the prime torch bearer of
the Company’s growth, his hold on information, with
the use of latest technology, is critical. Optimal use of
technology can help your business grow leaps and
bounds and make expansion much simpler. But don’t
forget, technology changes much faster than us &
hence, regular - on-going - self driven, research &
training, is imperative.
5. Invest in People & Keep Them Motivated
Your people make your team. Pick them carefully, train
them diligently and keep envisioning them with your
farsightedness. In your core team, ensure that you are
fostering future leaders and not aiming at a one man
army.
6. Cultivate Positivity & A Solution Driven Approach.
Keep your business energised through the power of
positive thinking. Negativity would lurk at every step.
But it is what you choose to acknowledge first, that
would make the difference. Highlight, share and
appreciate positive thoughts and actions with everybody
as much as possible.

24. Electricity - a truly wonderful engineering marvel
that has woven itself into our day to day lives. We
are now dependent on Electricity being available,
even in remote locations. We depend of it for everything
from charging our devices, to basic heating cooling and
environmental controls, to operating day to day kitchen and
bath appliances, and even for running our vehicles.
Though remarkable work has been done over the years to
ensure electricity reaches even the remotest areas, reliable
and dependable distribution networks are still a distant
dream. Both government and non-government electrical
engineering firms are working tirelessly to strengthen the
electrical distribution networks in India to keep pace with
the need and demand to efficiently and reliably transport
electricity from the generation points to end consumers .
Contributing to this dream is Frontier Technologies Pvt
Ltd (Frontec), a company which specializes in Cable Joints
and End Terminations of the Heat Shrink Type. Frontec has
been in the business of manufacturing Heat Shrinkable
Products since 1987. The company manufactures Heat
Shrink cable jointing kits, which are used in Medium
Voltage electrical distribution networks across India.
Beginnings
The company was Co-founded by Om Khosla and Ashok
Saigal in 1987 as an indigenous manufacturer of Heat
Shrink and has since grown to become one of the pioneers
for Cable Jointing Kits in India.
Prior to setting up Frontec, Mr. Khosla had been a leading
Transmission Line expert who led his then company, EMC,
into path breaking contracts for 400 kV lines in India and
several mid-East countries in the 1970’s. He is currently
serving as Chairman Emeritus of Frontec.
Ashok, who is currently the Managing Director, Frontec
has been instrumental in establishing Heat Shrink
technology into India since the 1980’s. He spearheaded the
introduction of this new technology through a leading
multinational where he worked for ten years before moving
on to establish Frontec.
Creating Reliable Connections - electrical and personal
The company manufactures a wide range of heat shrinkable
products including insulators cable breakouts, rain skirts,
and caps and heat shrink tubing.
These components go into Cable Jointing Kits for both
Underground (U/G) as well as Aerial Bunched (A/B)
Cables covering Low and Medium Voltages (upto 33KV),
Cable Terminations, Straight Through Joints, andFully
insulated Tap-Off connectors for Medium Voltage A/B
Cables, which are sold under the Frontec brand name. All

25. these products are tested to National Standards and meet or
exceed International industry standards and application
requirements ensuring that each Frontec joint is a
connection you can depend on.
Frontec focuses on connecting with the customer to identify
the most suitable product for their requirements before
supplying. It takes pride in its ability to respond to develop
new products to meet changing market demands. The
company puts strong focus on Quality Control and Forensic
Investigation to analyze the cause of failures. It provides
free no-fault Guarantee period replacement kits and field
visits to its long-term customers who return samples of field
failures for analysis even after several years.
Dealing with Challenges
Frontec’s thirty years of existence have presented some
challenges too. Cable joints, being required only at the end
of an electrification process, do not received proper
attention. They form a fairly small portion of the overall
cost of the project so more often than not, proper
specifications, quality checks and vendor reliability are not
discussed in detail. The price to value proposition arrived at
by evaluating the technical performance of the product and
mapping it to the price point is rarely considered and
discussed.
Establishing Brand Image has been another major issue.
Liberalization of imports has opened the market to
competition from lower cost imports. As such, it is difficult
for a company without an International collaboration to
establish its credentials as a quality supplier worth a
premium price over the lowest bidder. Good product
performance backed by quick response to customer needs
for quick deliveries and technical and service support have
helped Frontec to establish long term supplier relationships
with reputed customers.
Appreciations
Frontec’s commitment to quality and professional
management has been recognized at various platforms. It
has regularly supported CPRI in training Workshops on
Cable Installation and Jointing by providing its key
personnel as faculty. Frontec also contributes technical
articles on cables and accessories to leading Electrical
Journals in India. Following this, Ashok was invited by the
Kenya Power and Lighting Company to conduct a 3 day
training program on Installation and Jointing of MV Aerial
Bunched cables.
Frontec has serviced several prestigious customers (both
SEB’s as well as large Private Contractors) in India. Many
Indian Discoms and reputed EPC Contractors have
acknowledged Frontec’s support in designing and executing
their electrification projects.
Frontec’s inputs for introduction of LT AB cable installation
methods in India were much appreciated by Rural
Electrification Corporation and the company was asked to
give a major presentation on this subject at the 2008
Elecrama as a key part of the “Power for All” initiative of
the Govt of India.
For a Bright Future
Frontec sees the Electrical Industry in India at the cusp of a
major transformation as the Power Sector transitions from a
shortage situation to one of surplus power availability both
at Generation and Grid levels. Interruptions in power
supply are now being seen as a hurdle in overall growth and
development of the country and will no longer be tolerated.
An increased demand for higher reliability products will
benefit higher quality producers.
Frontec has developed several unique products as per
customer requirements and within the agreed on time limits.
Many of these products have become de-facto industry
standards. The recent addition of Mr Aditya Saigal as the
head of Sales and marketing has added fresh impetus to this
important function. The company looks forward to leverage
its reputation for reliability of product quality and business
commitments for further brand extension both nationally
and internationally, and to a wider range of products.
India has been making rapid strides in the electrical field.
The country has come a long way from being dependent on
International Powers to being self-sufficient. With
committed indigenous players like Frontec, India is sure to
shine bright!

26. O
f all the fields of industrial design, lighting seems
to evolve the quickest as designers harness
innovations in materials, manufacturing, and
technology. Often we only pay attention to light in extreme
cases—it’s too dark or too bright. But the middle part of
that continuum is where it gets interesting. The quality,
color, and amount of light shape our understanding and the
aesthetic purposes in visual media and in living spaces. In
fact, in some ways it makes more sense to think of light as
energy rather than as a flow of particles, though truthfully it
is – a little confusingly – both.
K-LITE has stood for innovation and sustainable
development in the Indian lighting industry, supported by
its manufacturing hub in CHENNAI, INDIA. An ISO 9001
certified company K-Lite is a leading manufacturer of
indoor and outdoor Lighting Fixtures in India. Incorporated
in the year 1977, it has crossed the silver jubilee milestone.
The quality conscious K-Lite clientele which includes
prestigious software companies, Delhi Airport and the
metro rail will speak for themselves the standing of the
company. Quality assurance with a fully equipped
illumination laboratory and a committed group of
employees are the mainstay for the success of the company.
The right light lifts the mood, inspires productivity and
motivates us
Light has a communicative and social value in its ability to
optimize urban spaces, giving the possibility of reclaiming
the culture of a place, encourage aggregation, stimulating
business and tourism, making events and architecture
spectacular and increasing the feeling of safety. In 1977, K-
Lite began a long journey of innovation in lighting products
by its Founder Mr. Dilip Kumbhat the visionary. Though
born in a family of established electrical traders, he opted to

K-Lite is known at the national level with dealer outlets in
all big cities in India. Internationally, the company has
outlets in USA and UK. Directly and indirectly he has been
nurturing more than 1000 families through employment and
this is in itself a great service to society.
Having crossed the silver jubilee stage, the company is on a
very strong footing with ISO certification, CE marking of a
variety of outdoor luminaires, UL marking of certain export
luminaires and a fully equipped optometric and testing
laboratory to international standards.
K-Lite has established its footprint as the trend setters in
outdoor luminaires with quality and range as their
hallmark. K-Lite’s range of Green Lights for a Greener
World with a strong focus on LED goes to prove its respect
for environment and energy saving. Exclusivity of the K-

towards lighting industry in India and across the globe.
India Design Mark Award in 2015 and 2016 for some of
K-lite’s prestigious bollard / post top luminaires such as
Juno, Ajna and Vera.
Factors Contributing to the Growth of Lighting Market
Free and cheap imports, particularly from China are really
killing the development of domestic manufacturing of
lighting components. Such imports have brought down the
quality to very low levels. The market has become trader's
market. Even the locally available components for the
luminaires are imported as a cheap item. Government
should impose restrictions so that except the LED chips
from reputed manufacturers, other imports are curtailed.
Dilip says, “Unless we increase the domestic manufacturing
contribution more, we cannot scale up the local
production.”
Creating more public awareness programs to choose the
energy efficient lighting and making the usage of LED
lamps/ fixtures in all Government departments/ projects
mandatory.
Providing Apt Facilities for Future
Establishing Government testing laboratories and provide
the testing facilities at competitive rates as against the
existing limited facilities with very high rates coupled with
the typical delays to provide the services in time. A uniform
standard for the LED chips in line with the emerging
technologies.
Government should plan to provide special assistance for
the manufacturers through concessional land/ building
allocation, updating technology through regular workshops/
seminars through Deity or the relevant lighting associations
like the Indian Society of Lighting Engineers who are
conducting such programs all over India, easy loan facilities
with low interest rates etc.,

31. FBQ holded the reins of a small manufacturing unit in
Mumbai, which was unable to create its niche in the
complex market. Acknowledging Saif's passion for
entrepreneurship, FBQ decided to shut down his business
and support Saif in setting up his business venture KRYFS.
While FBQ handled the finance, Saif started focusing on
expanding the business. Later, Saif ’s hunger to be an
entrepreneur led him to be the CEO of the company.
Over the years, Saif had successfully gained associations
with various industry organizations like IEEMA, ITMA,
CII and IIMBAA. Under his aegis, KRYFS has transformed
the lamination industry from Secondary CRGO (raw
material) to Prime CRGO.
KRYFS – A One-of-its-kind Company
CRGO electrical steel is a material manufactured by only a
handful of countries around the world. As such, it is
imperative to have a good relationship and a constant
supply of raw material to generate profitable outcomes and
march beyond the success horizons. Working with the same
vision is KRYFS, which is not only the preferred supplier to
most of the large and prestigious transformer manufacturers
in India and abroad, but also a preferred customer for most
of the CRGO mills around the world.
The company is amongst the first to introduce ‘step lap
lamination’ in India, which actually reduced the no-load-
loss of transformers by six to eight percent, without
additional charges. It is the only company to offer both
tanks and transformer laminations upto 765 KV class,
which are the highest rating of commercially produced
transformers in the country.
The company has received several awards from
Engineering Export Promotion Council for six consecutive
years, the Asscocham Innovation Award, and the India’s
Small Giant Award to name a few.
For any growing organization, the biggest challenge is to
build a robust, competent and committed team of
people - ultimately people are the primary pillars of an
organization. KRYFS is a value-driven company, which has
always embraced values above business. Since inception,
the company proudly cherishes its 7 H values
of – Honesty | Humility | Helpful nature | Humanitarian
Approach | Hardwork | Happy Outlook | Hamesha Kaizen
(always improving)
The Current Scenario
Currently, with the various government schemes like
DDUGVY, IPDS, Saubhagya, etc. the demand for electrical
equipment is increasing to its best. The end customer as
well as the state utilities are not in good financial health,
thereby impacting the food chain. Further, intense
competition from Chinese players has a severe pressure on
margins. Also, the tightening of fund availability by the
banking industry has created a cash crunch in the electrical
industry.
“Thus, I would say the current scenario in the electrical
equipment industry is satisfactory from a demand
perspective but gloomy from a cash flow perspective,”
says Saif.
Future Endeavors
Consistently focusing on growth and prosperity of all its
stakeholders, KRYFS aims to be a globally recognized
player in which ever product or service it offers. By
providing optimal quality, great value and delightful service
to its customers, the company is on a mission to achieve
scale and excellence to its core. The company also intends
to pay a greater attention to solar rooftop business along
with energy storage (batteries) along with exploring the
applications of IIoT, AI and ML in the electrical equipments
industry, to make the equipment more predictable and the
supply more robust!

32. The Indian manufacturing industry is undoubtedly
one of the biggest contributors to the Indian
economy. Alongside delivering a plethora of
services and products in the Indian sub-continent,
companies are progressing towards the international
market and identifying new geographies to expand their
market share.
Earlier, because of the restrictions imposed on the
thermal power generation in India along with the
countless issues with the solar and wind power
generations, the market had been going through a lean
phase. However, by the virtue of new entrants in the
private sector to the reforms and initiatives introduced by
the Government, this sector has set the right trajectory of
growth. KVTEK Power Systems Pvt. Ltd. is one such
leading premium manufacturer of Electrical Testing and
Measuring Equipment with primary focus on High
Voltage Testing.
KVTEK stands for Kilovolt Technologies. As an ISO
9001:2008, ISO 14001:2004 & OHSAS 18001:2007
Certified Company, KVTEK has evolved as a complete
testing solution provider rather than just supplying the
test equipment to the clients. Along with the test
equipment’s, it also assists the customers in selecting the
right location for the test labs in their manufacturing
plants, offers complete design of site preparation
including earthing design and RF shielding designs. The
manufacturing plant is located in IMT Manesar, Gurgaon
and is approx. 50 Kms from New Delhi International
Airport.
An Invigorating Frontrunner
As the CEO of KVTEK, Anil Uppal is a seasoned
professional in this domain and has played a substantial
role in putting KVTEK on the global map. Anil carries
over three decades of experience that has fuelled his
motivation in accomplishing numerous milestones over
the years. With a mearge investment of 35K in 1990,
Anil has successfully managed to cement KVTEK as one
of the major players in the industry. One key attribute
that has attracted and fascinated Anil is the fact that there
are no competitive players within the Indian market as

33. KVTEK is the only manufacturer. The competition is
from the Chinese players who score the brownie points
on pricing; however, they fall much shorter when it
comes to delivering premium quality products along with
seamless after-sales service.
Weaving the Success Web
The initial business model was based on importing high
voltage test equipment from the US and Europe and
market them in India, along with providing installation,
commissioning and after-sale service for the imported
products. However by the year 2000, the Chinese
industry started to explore the market, this model became
unsustainable to continue. By 2005, the company shifted
its gear and instead of trading products, started to
manufacture them in India only and since then it has
progressed steadily. Today along with manufacturing,
KVTEK undertakes complete turnkey responsibility of
setting up the test labs that has ultimately resulted in
solidifying its customer-base. Some of the major
products offered by the company are listed below:
-HV AC Series Resonant Test System
-HV Partial Discharge Detection System
-Capacitance and Tangent Delta Test Set
-Impulse Voltage Test System
-Transformer Loss Measuring System
-Static Frequency Converter
-Capacitor Banks required for transformer testing
-HV AC Dielectric Test Sets
-AC/DC Kilovoltmeters
-Ratio and Phase Angle Error Equipment for
CTs/PTs/CVTs
Alongside, the associated accessories also help KVTEK
to offer complete turnkey test lab solutions to the
manufacturers of various components that include:
-HV PD Test Labs
-Impulse Test Labs
-Transformer Loss Measuring Test Labs
-Ratio & Phase Angle error and Capacitance & Tangent
Delta Test Labs
These labs can be created in the factory for pre-dispatch
testing, third-party test labs and can also be a mobile test
facility to conduct on-site testing.
Industry Challenges
Talking about the challenges and hardships, Anil asserts
that “Major challenge for growth is the complete lack of
basic infrastructure required for this industry. For every
small thing we need to rely on foreign countries. Not
enough labs to provide basic calibration of these
equipment’s. Most components, raw material needs to be
imported. No Trained man power readily available in
this field as a result of which we have to hire fresher’s,
train them for few years before they become useful to the
company”.
Future Augmentations
The ultimate objective of KVTEK is to evolve as the
market leader at the global platform. Over the last few
years, the company has explored new territories that
include Vietnam and in the US. In its endeavor to
maximize its footprints, it continues to establish channel
partners across the globe to market its products at the
global market. The company holds a very optimistic
view of the future. As the majority of the buyers who had
gone for Chinese products have faced multiple issues
related to the product and after-sales services, these
companies are now tuning up with KVTEK for better
products and services. Additionally, as the US and
European products are expensive and also have minimal
advantages, these markets are also losing the dominance
which is actually assisting KVTEK to tap new
opportunities. Combining these favorable market
scenarios, the future perspective looks bright as the
company looks forward to creating new markets along
with increasing its prominence in the existing markets.

In this digital-age, where technology is
evolving to its fullest, Electricity is of
utmost significance. With advancements
like never before the Electrical Industry is
witnessing a revolution and setting a perfect
example of innovation and alacrity.
Let’s read about a discovery which is
empowering mankind with prominent
capabilities and creating a one-of-its-kind
history – Infrared Thermography (IRT).
We all know that electrical and mechanical
systems can run into problems without giving
any set of warnings. These failures are
frequently preceded by a considerable period of
increased heat in the various components of the
system. This is where Infrared Thermography
comes into the picture as a savior. Just think, if
the increasing heat gets detected in good time,
it would be surely essential in analyzing the
condition and correcting it before the
equipment fails. Infrared Thermography – a
powerful maintenance tool which helps
identifying areas that are abnormally hot or
cool – does the same. It is a tool which comes
up with a curated checklist of benefits useful in
investigating the electrical problems.
Regular visual inspections may successfully
unveil electrical issues, but it would be too late
as the issues would have already caused
damage and also burned a hole in one’s pocket.
However, explorations through IRT can find the
problems and fix them avoiding costly down
time, equipment damage and potential safety
issues.
INFRARED THERMOGRAPHYINFRARED THERMOGRAPHY
Transforming Electrical Industry at its Best!

From Editor’s Desk
IRT can detect several conditions that may undermine
the operational efficiency of electrical systems. Some of
the conditions include overloads, loose connections,
inductive heating, open circuits, harmonics, unbalanced
loads and defective equipment.
‘Safe’ is the New Smart
The world is flooded with complex evolving sectors,
where the industrial processes are running faster than
before. As such, this high speed may cause sudden
failure creating hazardous conditions. For example, it
can include flying debris that would be harmful for the
in-house employees. IRT enables real-time detection of
electrical problems and avoid fires caused by overloaded
circuits or faulty wiring. It showcases a perfect blend of
smart and safe work.
Unseen temperature variations can be detected instantly
before any major harm including:
• Immediate Stoppage of production in case of any
disturbance
• Empowering employees by avoiding serious in-house
accidents
• Early detection of short circuits and fires
In case of loose connections, IRT would successfully
avoid the risks of electrocution by detecting the amount
of connections in a particular plant.
Competitiveness at Ease
As said earlier, inspections using IRT would help
detecting problems and assist repairs. This will
successfully lead to fewer downtimes and result in fewer
interruptions. IRT hits the equipment in good time and
increases operational productivity with significant
financial savings.
With IRT, the businesses can experience fewer
interruptions. It would also reduce losses and improve
the cash flow. In case of commercial insurance that
protects against interruptions, IRT tool would help in
paying lower premiums for the coverage. Compared to
manual inspections, IRT does not require any manual
interruption during the inspection. The tool will inspect
electrical problems while systems are running, even in
complex operations it would perform meticulously. This
in turn would generate profitable outcomes. Its low
maintenance aspect makes it unique. In-house and on-
site equipment such as panels, switches, relays,
transformers, cables, power grids etc. can be examined at
ease.
Enhanced Quality
IRT tool perfectly defines the true essence of ‘quality’ –
a result of processes that run reliably and consistently. As
dealing with electrical problems becomes easy, systems
will operate optimally. This will help in rolling out
quality products, a factor that will not only earn the trust
of the customers but also boost the business in the longer
run. Currently, IR thermography is becoming the most
reliable diagnostic tool for the existing and emerging
electrical companies.
Future Highlights
IRT is on its way to become a significant component of
diversified industrial processes by driving the mankind
towards a viable and safe world. Soon, there would be no
substitute to its accuracy, safety or reliability. Presently,
this technique is helping the plant engineers to predict
any potential failure, thereby planning well before these
failures become hazardous. Future would witness a
scenario where electrical industry would offer better
safety and set a perfect example of ‘Safe and Secure
Sector.’
The future trends of IRT are linked to various complex
parameters like the emerging technologies of sensor
fabrication. This is for the mass production especially for
electronic applications, with a strong two-way synergy
between electrical and mechanical applications.
New markets like automotive, intelligent building,
environmental control and consolidated markets like
biomedical and medical, energy control, surveillance and
warning would get strong benefits from the IRT tool.
Especially in automotive applications, this tool will
create a real possibility of high level products at
contained cost feeding – a double-wave of technology
transfer between the emerging applications. IRT is the
source of developing a better Electrical World with its
flair of creativity and prominence.
