The first manufacturing unit
Magnarc's journey began in Visakhapatnam under the leadership of Mr. Ch. Chandrasekhara Rao. The establishment of the first manufacturing unit laid the foundation for a growing presence in the welding industry.
Every great journey begins with a vision. Ours began in Visakhapatnam in 1982—and continues through generations of leadership, manufacturing growth and relationships built on trust.
Magnarc began with the vision of Mr. Ch. Chandrasekhara Rao, a B.Com graduate with five years of experience in the same field, who established the first manufacturing unit in Visakhapatnam in 1982.
What started as a single unit gradually grew into a trusted name in the welding industry. In 1994, his elder son, Mr. Ch. Rajasekhar, took over responsibilities, carrying the family vision forward with a commitment to growth, quality and innovation.
New manufacturing milestones followed in 2013 and 2019, expanding Magnarc's presence in Visakhapatnam and Bhilai and strengthening its reach into new markets.
From our first manufacturing unit to a wider manufacturing footprint, each milestone marks another chapter in Magnarc's progress. Select a year to discover the story.
