Heritage

The origin of DCM Engineering dates back to 1889, when Delhi Cloth & General Mills was established as an integrated Textile mill in Delhi. Over the years, the DCM Engineering Group became one of India’s largest conglomerates, consisting of a large number of companies/ divisions, reputed for their product quality, dynamism and business integrity. DCM Engineering expanded and diversified into a number of manufacturing activities such as Information Technology, Textiles, Sugar, Chemicals, Rayon, Tyre Cord, Fertilizers, grey iron Castings, etc. The name of the Company was changed in 1983 to DCM Engineering Limited. World over, the 80s was the decade of diversifications and DCM Engineering entered into a number of Joint Ventures with market leaders like Toyota, Denso, Benetton, etc. However, the 90s was a time for consolidation and focusing on core business areas. The DCM Engineering Group too, decided to move out of some of the business ventures which did not fit into its overall strategic vision. The thrust was on value-added products, on high technology and sunrise industries. The business of the Company was reorganized with effect from 1st April, 1990 under a Scheme of Arrangement, wherein the businesses were separated into four companies.

Today, after the said reorganization, DCM Engineering Limited is headed by Dr.Vinay Bharat Ram, a noted economist, author, musician and industrialist. He has been Past President of The Harvard Club of Delhi and Manufacturers Association of Information Technology, Ex-member of International Council of Asia Society, New York, U.S.A. and was also honored with the National Citizen Award for Entrepreneurship by the Prime Minister of India.

DCM Engineering Limited now operates in the areas of automotive engineering products, information technology, cotton yarn and real estate. Since inception, DCM Engineering has built its corporate philosophy synonymous with corporate dynamism and business integrity. DCM Engineering inherits its values from late Lala Sri Ram, one of India most prominent, honored and dynamic business leaders, and has been keeping the traditions of its founders alive.

The DCM Engineering Group has been known for promoting arts, theatre, culture, education, music and sports.
