Cummins has been associated with the Indian subcontinent for close to five decades. The stage was set way back in 1962, when a partnership between Kirloskar and Cummins crystallized into an 85-acre manufacturing campus in Pune. In a span of three years from commencing operations, the business started to generate profits. From thereon, the partnership continued to flourish, till up till 1997, when the Kirloskar’s sold their ownership; resulting in Cummins Inc. increasing its stake to 51% and the rest being traded on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE). This led to the formation of Cummins India Limited, a consolidated subsidiary of Cummins Inc.
