He was born in 1868 in village Gurlahsur in Belgaum District. After completing the course of Technical Draftsmanship at J.J. School of Arts, he worked as an assistant drawing teacher at V.J.T.l. Bombay. Being interested in mechanics from a tender age, his appointment at V. J. T. 1. was a boon as he could widen his mechanical knowledge there. He however resigned from V.J.T.l. on being denied a promotion and started manufacture of small products such as pill boxes and buttons. He also started the business of selling and repairing bicycles. He left Bombay in 1896 due to the outbreak of plague and went back to Belgaum, where his brother was a school teacher. With the help of his brother he set up a cycle shop and thus began the business partnership of Kirloskar Brothers. The Late Mr. L. K. Kirloskar started the manufacture of hand chaff cutters in a small workshop in 1900. The castings were brought from Bombay and by pushing up sales he soon established his own foundry. In 1902 Mr. L. K. Kirloskar was entrusted with the work of constructing a mandap in front of the Yamai Temple at Aundh by the then Maharaja of Aundh. It was a 4 year, Rs. 65,000/project in those days which he completed successfully. In 1903 he shifted his workshop to a new site at Thalakwadi on the outskirts of Belgaum to enable him to expand production. In 1905 the first iron plough was made in Incha by Kirloskar Brothers and the first batch of 6 ploughs remained unsold for 2 years ! after which a farmer from Miraj took the risk and brought all the six. The sales increased from 6 to 200 p.a. and fourteen years later a record figure o f40,000 ploughs in a single season was reached. In 1910 the Belgaum Municipality served a notice to shift the factory in 6 months. The Maharaja of Aundh came to the rescue of Mr L. K. Kirloskar and offered a piece of land as well as a loan of Rs. 10,000/- and that is how in 1910 the factory was shifted from Belgaum to Kundal Road Station (now known as Kirloskarwadi) in Ex- Aundh state. The place was barren, a dwelling of dacoits and snakes with no water. Creating Attitudinal Change for Total Quahty Management 114 Chapter IV - Kirloskar Brothers Ltd. - Case Study But With the untiring efforts of 33 of his faithful workers who came with him from Belgaum, he was able to restart production in 1911. After the first world war broke out many other small products were added to the line of manufacture and the number of workers rose to 800. Kirloskar Brothers Ltd. (KBL) which m a real sense is a mother industry of all the other Kirloskar Companies was incorporated into a limited concern with an authorised capital of Rs. 1,00,000/- in 1920. It was just the beginning o fa new era of industrial technology in India, when KBL began its activities with the manufacture of iron ploughs and chaff cutters and soon became a nursery of the nation's industrialisation. The chaff cutter and iron ploughs made by KBL created a revolution in agricultural method implements used in those days. KBL foresaw the changing demands and shifted its manufacturing focus. It branched into the fields of fluid handling and fluid control and soon became a leader in manufacture of pumps and valves. KBL did not stop at this stage. It developed machine tools and hermetically sealed compressors. Today KBL is the largest manufacturer of a variety of pumps, valves, computerised and numerically controlled machine tools, hermetically sealed compre&sors and agricultural implements in India. KBL has its manufacturing plants at Kirloskarvadi, Dewas in Madhya Pradesh and a subsidiary 'Kirloskar - Copeland Ltd.' at Karad. The Head Office is at Pune with its sales office branches in metros like Bombay, Delhi, Madras, Calcutta and most of the state capitals. It has 4 zonal offices and 19 regional offices. 4.2 KIRLOSKARVADI P L A N T : The Kirloskarvadi plant is spread on about 40 acres of land and engaged in manufacture of centrifugal pumps, valves and standard and CNC machine tools. The facilities include design research and development, pattern shop, foundries, machine shop, material testing laboratory, non destructive testing equipments and pump testing laboratories under one roof The Company has an excellent marketing network throughout the length and width of the country. The annual production of KBL Kirloskarvadi has crossed the figure of Rs. 1,000/- million in the year - 1992 - 93. The company has entered into technical collaboration with M/s. Godiva, U. K. for technology transfer of mobile fire fighting pump-sets. AFE Metals, France have collaboration with K'vadi plant for development of casting procedures for low carbon stainless steels and duplex stainless steels. Four foundries namely C. I. Foundry, Creating Attitudinal Change for Total Quality Management 115 Chapter IV - Kirloskar Brothers Ltd. - Case Study Heavy Foundry, Alloy Cast Steel Foundry, and Non-Ferrous Foundry are capable of producing various grades of cast irons, carbon steels, alloy steels and wide range of non - ferrous metals. Cast Iron castings up to 3 MT weights and alloy steel castings upto 1.5 JVrr weights can be poured in single piece. Foundry Laboratory is equipped with sand testing, mechanical testing facilities and a spectrometer for instant chemical analysis. Research & Development Centre has an excellent Test Bed on which pumps upto 5000 L/S flow & 2500 HP ratings can be tested.

Crores) Long-term bank facilities CARE A; Stable 2.00 Reaffirmed (Single A; Outlook: Stable) Short term bank facilities CARE A1 16.00 Reaffirmed ( A One) 18.00 Total (Rupees Eighteen crore only) Details of instruments/facilities in Annexure-1 Detailed Rationale The reaffirmation in the ratings assigned to the bank facility of Kirloskar chillers private limited (KCPL) continues to derive strength from its strong parentage, being a part of the 125 years old Pune (Maharashtra) based Kirloskar Group which has an established presence in the industrial and engineering segment, long and established track record of KCPL of over two decades in chiller manufacturing industry and diversified customer and supplier base of the company. The ratings also factor the improvement in profitability during FY20 (refers to period April 1 to March 31) and improvement in total income and increase in profitability during 10MFY21 (Unaudited; refers to period April 1 to January 31). CARE also notes that the company has not availed any moratorium under Covid relief measure of RBI for the interest payment or principal repayment of its existing bank facilities indicating the strong liquidity position of KCPL. The rating strengths, however, are constrained on account of moderation in KCPL’s capital structure & debt coverage indicators as on March 31, 2020, modest scale of operations restricting the overall financial flexibility of the company, risks related to the fluctuation in the raw material prices which is partially mitigated by short tenure of work contracts and intense competition from various large and established players of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry.
