Our Story

From a letter pad in Egmore
to a global group.

The founder's first ambition was to set up grain-based distilleries in India — a dream that regulation kept on paper. That same conviction was redirected into hydrocarbons and engineering, and has carried Pranaav from one office to an undertaking that now spans consulting, EPC contracting, distillation technology and data-center infrastructure.

Our commitment has not moved since day one: provide best-in-class engineering to developing nations, and keep bringing modern distillation technology into India.

Pranaav Industrial Engineering

Engineering & Technology

Engineering that builds
the things others plan.

Pranaav Global Consultants Engineering Contractor was established as a partnership firm in 2003, continuing as an independent entity through 2012. Today it operates as a wholly independent undertaking funded by its holding company, taking on projects ranging from small mandates to those in the crore band delivering best-in-class engineering to developing nations across multiple sectors.

This organizational structure enables the company to manage projects across different markets while maintaining technical and operational standards.

Global Footprint

From an Egmore letter pad to a Singapore-headquartered group.

Pranaav Global Consultants Oil Trading was formed in 2009 and headquartered in Singapore, starting operations in the Middle East that same year. In 2019, Pranaav Consulting Engineering merged into Pranaav Global Consultants Oil Trading — yet continues to run as an independent, self-funded undertaking within the group.

The company also has a significant connection with the Middle East, including engineering, workforce, and project-related activities.

The combination of Indian capabilities and international experience provides a strong foundation for serving clients across both regions.

People & Leadership

A structure built
to last as long as we have.

Some of our colleagues have been with Pranaav for more than 34 years — as long as the company itself has existed. That kind of tenure isn't incidental; it's the clearest evidence of how we treat the people who build alongside us. Four tiers of leadership carry that responsibility forward, each accountable for the scale below it.

Reshaping your future in the Indian landscape — 34 years, and not one legal case against us.
