Krypton Industries was incorporated as a public limited company in the state of West Bengal at Calcutta on April 6, 1990 and obtained the certificate of commencement of business on April 20, 1990. The immediate object of the company is to set up a new Industrial undertaking at Falta Export Processing Zone (FEPZ), a Free Trade Zone, for manufacture of Multi-Cellular Polyurethane (MCP) tubeless cycle tyres. The licensed capacity of the plant is 10, 00,000 tyres per annum and the installed capacity is 8, 60,000 tyres per annum on two shift basis. The company has been promoted by J P Toshniwal, M L Kankaria and C L Sarawgli in collaboration with Canada-based Poly Air Tires Inc, a professionally managed company that is represented on the board by Edward R and Charlotte K Alsman. After extensive Research & Development, Poly Air has developed a technology for manufacture of MCP tyres and is presently operating a pilot plant successfully at Windsor, Canada. The company has also established a wide marketing network in USA, Canada and Europe. Jayshree Enterprises is a partnership firm, manufacturing portable generator sets for the Indian Railway. Kisan Krishi Yantra Udyog, a partnership firm, is manufacturing rice mill, dal mill, oil expellers and agricultural equipments. All the three units are running profitably.

Krypton Industries produces multi-cellular polyurethane tubeless cycle tires with technical knowhow obtained from Poly Air Tires of Canada. The company plants are located in Parganas, West Bengal. The unit is an export oriented unit. Poly Air agreed to buy back 75% of company's production. Accumulated losses led the company to seek a rehabilitation package from BIFR, which declared it a sick unit in 1998. The company has since come back into the black and has now accumulated reserves that almost equal its share capital. The registered office is in Kolkata. Jay Singh Bardia is the company chairman and managing director.
