Frequently Asked Questions
About Patels Airflow
Patels Airflow Limited is an Ahmedabad-based manufacturer of electrical and air handling equipment, incorporated on 17 September 2001. Headquartered at Phase I, GIDC Industrial Estate, Vatva, Ahmedabad — one of India's most prominent industrial clusters — the company has built a focused niche in air handling units, HVAC systems, and related electrical equipment serving industrial and commercial clients. The company is a privately held public limited company with authorized capital of ₹2.50 Crore and paid-up capital of ₹2.25 Crore. With a compact team of 73 employees as of October 2024, Patels Airflow operates as a high-efficiency manufacturer punching above its size. Its operations are clustered in Gujarat's well-developed industrial manufacturing ecosystem. Financially, Patels Airflow delivered revenues of ₹60.4 Crore for FY2022, with subsequent years showing strong performance. In FY2023, the company recorded a 38.69% increase in revenue and a 56.07% improvement in profit — demonstrating meaningful operational leverage. Book networth grew 19.05% in FY2023, reflecting retained earnings strength. The company's promoter holding of 85.67% with public holding of 14.34% (as of 2022) indicates a tightly held ownership structure with founders retaining majority control. This promoter concentration is typical for successful Gujarati manufacturing families who have built specialized industrial businesses over generations. Patels Airflow serves industrial customers requiring precision air handling solutions for manufacturing plants, cleanrooms, pharmaceuticals, and commercial buildings. Its location in Vatva GIDC — home to hundreds of chemical, pharmaceutical, and engineering companies — provides a natural customer base within proximity. With a website at patelsairflow.com and active marketing presence, the company maintains professional outreach to its B2B customer base. The AGM held in September 2023 confirms ongoing corporate governance compliance.
