Kohler India Corporation Private Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 28.6% of grants classified under E03D (Water-closets OR Urinals With Flushing DEVICES; Flushing Valves Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Kohler sits between Kneron (Taiwan) Co., Ltd. and Kratos LLC.
Kohler India Corporation Private Limited shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
