	BFL is among the first in the Indian automotive component industry to have adapted inorganic growth as a means to establish a global manufacturing footprint. In 2004 BFL acquired Carl Dan Peddinghaus (CDP), the 2nd largest forging company in Germany that is mainly engaged in the manufacture of passenger car components, followed by CDP Aluminiumtechnik, a company in Germany that manufactures aluminium components for automotive applications.


	In 2005, BFL acquired Federal Forge now known as Bharat Forge America Inc., which provided BFL with a manufacturing presence in USA – one of its largest markets. This was followed by the acquisition of Imatra Kilsta, AB, Sweden along with its wholly owned subsidiary Scottish Stampings, Scotland (together called as Imatra Forging Group). In December 2005 Bharat Forge signed a JV with FAW Corporation - the largest automotive group in China. Through this JV, BFL made a powerful entry into the large and fast growing Chinese automotive market. The Forging company of the FAW group is the largest in China, and by joining hands with them, BFL instantly became the largest forging company in China.

	These acquisitions have provided BFL access to customers in new geographies, enhanced technological capabilities and enlarged the company’s product range.

	With manufacturing facilities spread over 12 locations and 6 countries – 4 in India, 3 in Germany, 1 each in Sweden, Scotland, North America and 2 in China, Bharat Forge Limited, today is a global corporation with world-class engineering capabilities, state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, high levels of service and a global customer base.
