Sterling Tools Partners with Meishuo Electric for Power Components in India

Sterling Tools has entered into a partnership with Zhejiang Meishuo Electric Technology Co of China to produce latching relays for energy grids, industrial systems, and smart metering applications in India. The collaboration, aimed at enhancing domestic manufacturing, is projected to generate Rs 2 billion in business by FY30. The production will take place at a new facility in Bengaluru, which has been established with an initial investment of Rs 200 million.

This venture marks Sterling Tools’ entry into the energy sector through its wholly owned subsidiary, Sterling Tech-Mobility. The focus of the partnership will be on localizing the production of latching relays, which are essential components that conserve energy by consuming power only when switching states. These relays are crucial in extending the lifespan of energy systems and improving efficiency in industrial and white goods applications.

Anish Agarwal, Director of Sterling Tools, stated that the partnership supports the localisation of latching relay production and aligns with the Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat initiatives. He emphasised that it would help meet India's growing demand while reducing reliance on imports.

Latching relays, which are used for remote power connection and disconnection, are vital for smart meters and industrial equipment. The technology is expected to foster innovation and improve efficiency in India’s energy and industrial sectors, providing cost-effective solutions for local manufacturers.

Xiaohu Huang, Chairman of Zhejiang Meishuo Electric Technology Co, highlighted that India’s industrial and consumer markets present significant growth potential. He noted that the collaboration would address evolving demands while supporting India’s self-reliance and sustainability objectives.
