Tell us how Deltron Technologies was born. What are some key contributions of the organisation?
Deltron originated as a response to the routine of corporate life, representing a transition into entrepreneurship. Starting as a solo venture, it gradually evolved into a collaborative effort, bringing together a diverse team of professionals. A significant milestone for the organisation occurred when the Indian Air Force presented a challenge—to develop a Cold Starting Kit for generators in freezing outposts, ensuring optimal functionality in harsh conditions. This project underscored the amalgamation of electronic expertise and a commitment to duty. The resulting Cold Starting Kit became instrumental for soldiers in remote locations, overcoming sub-zero temperatures and facilitating operational success. Winning the Air Force tender marked a noteworthy achievement, positioning Deltron as a contributor to national defence. boasts a diverse portfolio ranging from engine testing benches to end-of-life products. Our alliances with the Indian Air Force include critical projects, each serving as a lifeline. Furthermore, our expertise extends to app development, where code and creativity converge seamlessly. Presently, Deltron stands resilient, navigating financial fluctuations and global challenges while playing a crucial role in addressing the distinctive requirements of our nation’s defenders.
