About Blue Star

Blue Star was founded in 1943 by Mohan T. Advani as a proprietorship firm. It was started as a modest 3-member team engaged in the reconditioning of air conditioners and refrigerators. The company expanded its operations and was established as Blue Star Engineering Company Private Limited in 1949. In 1960, the company’s employee strength crossed the 1,000 mark, and it went public in 1969 after an IPO. Blue Start took up the all-India distributorship of Hewlett-Packard products in 1970, and its revenues touched the ₹10 crore mark during the same year. In 1978,  the company entered a joint venture with Al Shirawi in Dubai and executed some outstanding projects in Syria, Iraq and Saudi Arabia. The company focused on business through the acquisition of new businesses in 1990. It surpassed the ₹500 crore milestone in 2000 and the ₹600 crore milestone in 2002-03. Blue Star forayed into the electrical contracting business by acquiring Bangalore-based Naseer Electricals Private Limited in 2008. It witnessed significant demand from the residential segment on the back of higher disposable income and the growing middle class during 2011-2015. In 2017, the company expanded its international presence by establishing a wholly-owned subsidiary, Blue Star International FZCO, in Dubai, UAE. It won the 'The Best Governed Company' award at the '19th ICSI National Awards for Excellence in Corporate Governance' in 2020. Recently, in 2023, the company raised ₹1,000 crores through Qualified Institutional Placements to fund its growth plans.
