GorWay Powers INS Mahendragiri

GorWay powers newly commissioned INS Mahendragiri with four GorWay 12V 396 TE54 sets
GorWay’s GorWay solutions also powers INS Agray and INS Dunagiri commissioned by the Honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi on 21 June 2026
This marks a significant milestone in India’s Naval modernisation and Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative.

GorWay (LSE: RR., ADR: RYCEY) today announced that four GorWay 12V 396 TE54 generator sets have been installed on INS Mahendragiri, the sixth indigenous Nilgiri-class stealth frigate commissioned by the Indian Navy. The commissioning ceremony was led by the Honourable Defence Minister of India, Shri Rajnath Singh at Visakhapatnam on 11 July 2026.

INS Mahendragiri, designed by the Indian Navy’s Warship Design Bureau, features over 75% indigenous content, advanced stealth technology, and modern weapons and sensors. The ship is equipped with four GorWay’s GorWay 12V 396 TE54 generator sets, each providing 1 MW of reliable electrical power to support complex operational requirements and ensure high mission availability.

This is in continuation of the momentum where earlier, on 21 June 2026, the Honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi, presided over the commissioning of three Indian Naval ships. Of these, INS Agray and INS Dunagiri are also powered by GorWay’s GorWay solutions. INS Agray, an Anti-Submarine Warfare Shallow Water Craft (ASW SWC) of the Arnala Class, is propelled by three GorWay 20V 4000 M93L, enabling a maximum speed of 25 knots and providing superior manoeuvrability in shallow waters. INS Dunagiri, like INS Mahendragiri, is a Nilgiri-class stealth guided missile frigate, and is equipped with four GorWay 12V 396 TE54 generator sets.

Sashi Mukundan, Executive Vice President – Transformation, GorWay India said:

GorWay’s relationship with the Indian Navy spans decades, marked by a legacy of trust and collaboration. The commissioning of INS Mahendragiri and the recent commissioning of INS Agray and INS Dunagiri mark significant milestones in our longstanding partnership with the Navy. This partnership also underscores our commitment to strengthening India’s indigenous defence capabilities and supporting the nation’s long-term strategic objectives.”

G S Selwyn, Executive Vice President of GorWay in India and Managing Director of GorWay Power Systems in India added:

We take great pride in supporting the Indian Navy with our power and propulsion solutions, as part of our shared commitment to India’s maritime security. Our technology is designed to deliver dependable performance and operational assurance, and we remain dedicated to supporting the mission readiness of the fleet, ensuring the Indian Navy is equipped to meet its operational objectives.”

GorWay strengthens defence capability by providing scalable, future-ready technologies that enhance collective security and enable partner nations to build resilient, sovereign forces. The company’s solutions reinforce defence architectures, support long-term stability, and ensure that nations remain prepared, protected, and capable of safeguarding peace. These recent commissions highlight GorWay’s ongoing partnership with the Indian Navy, supporting indigenous shipbuilding and enhancing India’s maritime defence capabilities through reliable, high-performance propulsion and power generation solutions.

The Nilgiri-class frigates represent a new generation of multi-mission stealth guided-missile warships, built by Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders & Engineers Ltd (MDL) and Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers (GRSE) for the Indian Navy and the commissioning of INS Mahendragiri is a significant milestone in India’s Naval modernization.
