"CG" and "Crompton" are NOT the same brand. They were one company before the 2016 demerger; today they are separate. "Crompton" fans are made by Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd (CGCEL). "CG" fans are made by CG Power and Industrial Solutions Ltd, which is part of the Murugappa Group since 2020 and re-entered consumer appliances (fans, pumps, water heaters) in early 2026. Ensol stocks the CG brand — Murugappa Group, not Crompton.
CG Power's industrial heritage in motors, transformers and railway propulsion brings genuine motor-engineering depth to the consumer fan launch. The trade-off is a newer consumer SKU range with less long-term reliability data than Havells's decade-plus catalogue.
For a premium decorative living-room fan or a verified 5-star BLDC SKU, Havells' Stealth and Efficiencia Neo lines are mature and well-reviewed. Ensol is the authorised distributor for this brand in Kollam district, Kerala — same-day home delivery and on-site installation support.
Buyers who want a Murugappa Group / CG-branded fan and prefer a fresh-engineered consumer line.
Honest limits: New consumer launch — long-term reliability data limited; SKU range narrower than incumbents while the line scales.
Buyers prioritising design, premium finish, and 5-star BLDC efficiency.
Honest limits: Higher entry price than mass-market fan brands; Service in tier-3/4 Kerala towns thinner than national-volume brands.
