In just 5 years of local manufacturing under the Make-in-India initiative, CP PLUS has climbed up amongst the TOP 3 Largest Manufacturers of Surveillance Equipment globally!

CP PLUS, India’s leading CCTV brand, began producing surveillance devices locally in India in its Manufacturing facility in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh 5 years ago. And since then, the brand has enhanced its manufacturing capabilities to reach the plant’s maximum production capacity of 1Mn units a month.

Now to meet the growing demand, CP PLUS has put up another manufacturing unit in Kadapa District, Andhra Pradesh. With the production commencing in Q2, 2022-23, this new facility will have 3 times the production capability vis-à-vis the existing capacity i.e. 3Mn Surveillance units per month, which will make it the World’s Largest Manufacturing Unit for Surveillance Products, outside China and 3rd largest in the entire world when including China.

The CP PLUS manufacturing facility Kadappa in the state of Andhra Pradesh has been integrated with the world’s latest Fuji-made state-of-the-art technology SMT Lines and semi-Robotic Assembly & packaging Lines. All production area has been designed with ESD flooring, and a dust-free and air-conditioned environment to achieve the world’s best quality of products.

This manufacturing facility has a wide range of Reliability Test Equipment to ensure High quality of products manufactured and also to qualify for various certifications required in Tenders and by Govt. of India organizations like RDSO, AAI, PWD, Indian Navy, etc.

Mr. Aditya Khemka, Managing Director of CP PLUS expressed his intentions to further expand the production capacities of manifolds in the future. “Backed by our R&D proficiency, we have plans in action to further augment our capabilities and become many times larger than the current size to produce 6 Mn units per month in near future to make our brand more and more Atmanirbhar in order to accomplish our PM’s dream and to make India truly self-reliant.

In addition, we have 10 acres of additional land for which we have firm plans to develop facilities for Backward Integration in the CCTV domain. CCTV & Recorders’ components like Housing, Cables, and Adapters among the others are placed in the first phase of manufacturing which will lead to an actual increase in Local Content in manufacturing and go another mile in the localization and indigenization process of CCTV manufacturing in India!

With visible Govt. support, we do foresee Exports of Surveillance products in near future from this stupendous production facility.”

All these areas of high-volume production, Backward Integration & Exports will attribute to a larger employment generation for the country, especially for Women as the brand’s current workforce consists of 90% of female workers.

Manufacturing for other domestic and international brands, CP Plus has also become the largest Indian OEM and ODM as well, giving strong competition to Chinese companies and reaching the leading spot in the entire surveillance industry.

CP PLUS is a pioneer Indian brand responsible for leading the security and surveillance industry in the country for many years now. Since its very beginning, CP PLUS has dominated the CCTV industry by introducing affordable solutions and a reliable sense of security to the general public and creating awareness about enhancing public safety. Now, the brand’s name itself has become a synonym for CCTV in many parts of the country.

Being a leading brand in the surveillance industry, CP PLUS has successfully conducted hundreds of government projects, securing railway and police stations, air and sea ports, government institutions, public roads, and even entire smart cities.

Currently, CP PLUS is also in talks with the Government of India to introduce the PLI scheme for the Surveillance industry and also about amendments to the Public Safety Act to further improve Electronics Security for India and its public.

The growth and popularity CP PLUS has witnessed every step of the way successfully placed the brand at the forefront of the surveillance industry, so much so that now CP PLUS is not just India’s No. 1 surveillance equipment manufacturer but also has the largest production facility for security and surveillance products anywhere outside of China in the whole world.

India’s First FinTech Startup Simplifying Provident Fund Challenges for India’s workforce

Published

on

Launched in October 2023, FinRight Technologies, a Mumbai-based fintech startup founded by CRED and Amazon professionals, addresses personal finance challenges uniquely. With a vision to address some of the most challenging pain points in personal finance, FinRight has chosen Employee Provident Fund (EPF) as its first major focus area as accessing this retirement corpus has become increasingly complicated.

In FY23, over 5.21 crore PF withdrawal and transfer claims were filed, but a staggering 25.8% of them–around 1.34 crore of PF claims–were rejected. For final PF withdrawal claims, the PF claim rejection rate hit a five-year high of 34%. These numbers reveal the deep-rooted challenges employees face when dealing with their Provident Fund claims, making it one of the biggest financial hurdles in India today.

Since its launch in 2023, FinRight has assisted over 5,000 customers on their PF withdrawals and online PF claims, offering a unique combination of tech-driven and human support around intricate rules and processes to provide personalised guidance and assistance. Individuals seeking to withdraw their EPF or resolve issues with EPF transfers can now turn to FinRight for seamless support. By visiting www.finright.in, users can access expert assistance powered by FinRight’s cutting-edge platform. The fintech startup ensures that EPF withdrawal requests initiated through its platform receive dedicated attention, significantly reducing the risk of rejection and simplifying the process for India’s workforce.

“Most people find understanding rules & processes around PF transfers and PF withdrawals daunting. The market is crowded with unorganized PF agents and PF consultants who lack expertise, provide inconsistent service, and often charge exorbitant fees. We saw an opportunity to deliver professional, transparent, and affordable solutions to simplify Provident Fund claims for everyone. Our goal is to empower individuals to access their money without stress or delays” said Amey Kanekar, Co-founder of Finright Technologies Pvt. Ltd.

FinRight is gearing up to introduce digital automation to tackle EPF issues seamlessly by integrating EPFO APIs and employing AI, the founder revealed. “8/10 people discover problems with their EPF only when they need funds, and that’s a challenge we aim to address head-on,” he said. As part of this initiative, FinRight will soon launch a “Get Your EPF Reviewed” online service, empowering users to identify discrepancies instantly in their EPF accounts with just a few clicks.

FinRight’s impact is best demonstrated through the experiences of its customers, who have successfully navigated complex online PF withdrawals issues with the platform’s help:

* Vikas K., Tech Professional in Delhi: “After leaving a tech company where I worked for eight years, I struggled to withdraw my Rs37 lakh EPF due to a mismatch in my father’s name and errors from a subsidiary transfer. My claims were rejected 16 times. FinRight stepped in with a joint declaration and rigorous follow-ups with EPFO, resolving the discrepancies and enabling a successful PF withdrawal within a month. Their expertise in handling Provident Fund withdrawal was a huge relief.”

* Ganesh R., Healthcare Professional in Chennai: “After 20 years across 3 organizations, my online PF withdrawal claim was rejected, citing ‘insufficient service.’ This PF claim rejection occurred because the employer had failed to correctly update my service. Despite seeking help from multiple PF consultants and PF agents, the issue persisted. That’s when FinRight came to my rescue. They helped me navigate the complex process between employers & EPFO, ensuring my service records were updated. This enabled me to access Rs75 lakhs of my PF balance”.

Angel Funding:

FinRight, driven by its mission to simplify personal finance challenges, has secured seed funding from investors. The startup aims to broaden its offerings to tackle additional personal finance pain points, including insurance claims, taxation, and estate planning. Simultaneously, it plans to scale its operations to major Indian cities, reinforcing its position as a trusted leader in financial assistance and provident fund services.
