About us
Helping water users become water custodians
Kritsnam Technologies builds data-driven solutions that put tamper-proof water data into the hands of managers, enterprises, and regulators — empowering smarter, more sustainable use of every drop.
Born at IIT Kanpur
Our Story
Kritsnam Technologies evolved from the research and innovation centre of IIT Kanpur, where a passion for solving India's water challenges met a rigorous engineering culture.
We started with a single conviction: water managers deserve trustworthy data. Today we deliver that — through telemetry hardware, ultrasonic flow meters, and cloud analytics built end-to-end in-house.
Our promise is simple. Bring tamper-proof water data to every manager, and offer value-driven services that turn that data into real outcomes.
We track water, like banks track money.
