Kirloskar Brothers Limited Strengthens India’s Naval Capability by Contributing to INS Taragiri
Apr 03, 2026
Kirloskar Brothers Limited (KBL), a global leader in fluid management solutions, proudly announces its contribution to INS Taragiri, the Indian Navy’s state-of-the-art stealth-guided missile frigate. This milestone underscores KBL’s continued commitment to advancing India’s indigenous defence manufacturing capabilities.
INS Taragiri represents the pinnacle of India’s naval engineering excellence, designed and built under the country’s indigenisation drive. KBL’s precision-engineered Canned Motor Pumps (CMPs) play a critical role in ensuring the efficiency, reliability and safety of the vessel’s on-board systems. CMPs are known for their leak-proof design, high reliability and low maintenance. Additionally, their compact size and low-noise, low-vibration operation make them ideally suited for demanding naval applications where performance and dependability are paramount.
This achievement marks yet another milestone in KBL’s contribution to India’s indigenously developed naval vessels, building on its successful involvement in INS Nilgiri, INS Surat, INS Himgiri, INS Udaygiri and INS Dunagiri. With each project, KBL has demonstrated its engineering excellence and ability to meet the stringent requirements of defence applications.
Through these contributions, KBL reinforces its strong alignment with the Government of India’s vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat. By delivering high-quality pumping solutions for critical defence infrastructure, the company continues to play a pivotal role in strengthening India’s defence ecosystem and enhancing maritime sovereignty.
KBL remains committed to innovation, quality and nation-building, supporting India’s journey towards self-reliance while ensuring operational excellence in some of the most challenging environments.
