LITMUS INDUSTRIES LIMITED :

The foundation of Litmus Industries (formerly known as Lumbini Vidyut) dates back to 1977, which was laid out with a broad vision of creating deep connections, value and growth for our people, partners and stakeholders.

Litmus Industries Limited, a Ramesh Corp. entity, foresaw the vital role of conductor-based transmission lines in revolutionizing electricity distribution in Nepal. The acquisition of Litmus marked a transformative 360-degree shift in management and policies. Through unwavering commitment to quality and innovation, Litmus, situated in Butwal Industrial Estate, Butwal, Rupandehi, emerged as a leading force in Nepal's Cables & Conductors Industry.

Over 15 years, the company successfully exported products to India. Recognitions such as the NS Quality Award in 2010 and the prestigious ISI certification for Cables in 2015 underscore Litmus Industries' position as the sole cable company in Nepal with an ISI mark, showcasing its unparalleled dedication, diverse product portfolio, and trust earned from a growing customer base.
