Audit Brief
Eltek is in business of DC power management systems. Eltek Valere has taken over the complete business of Eltek
SGS, and company is planning to register with changed name.The company is in operations since 1997. The set up in
Gurgaon is an assembly unit with designs being developed in Norway and Module (electronic cards) manufacturing in
China factory.
The company has more depedency on the product design outside India, hence product validation, reliability testing
could not be demonstrable in the plant.
Firm is ISO, OHSAS & EMS certified alongwith BSNL certifications for the products. Quality team has very good
