Shares of Dixon Technologies (India) Ltd. experienced a significant rally, climbing over 5% on Tuesday and achieving a 12% gain within a week. This surge comes amid reports suggesting that the Indian government is likely to approve its merger with Chinese smartphone manufacturer Vivo in the coming days.
Government Nod Expected for Dixon-Vivo Joint Venture
According to recent reports, the crucial approval for the Dixon Technologies Vivo merger is anticipated within the next ten days. An inter-ministerial committee has already given its clearance to the proposal, paving the way for a major collaboration that could reshape India's electronics manufacturing landscape.
The joint venture is projected to be a substantial revenue driver for Dixon Technologies, potentially opening an estimated Rs 30,000 crore revenue pipeline. Vivo, a dominant player in the Indian smartphone market, is expected to contribute between 22-23 million smartphone units annually through this partnership. This translates to nearly 67% of Vivo's localized annual volume shifting to Dixon's manufacturing facilities.
Stock Performance and Analyst Outlook
On Tuesday, Dixon Technologies shares rose 5.44% to Rs 12,889.95, building on a 25% gain over the last three months. The company's market capitalization stood at Rs 78,648 crore. While the stock has shown strong recent momentum, it remains 30% down from its 52-week high of Rs 18,471 reached in September 2025, and well above its 52-week low of Rs 9,605 from March this year.
Brokerage firm Macquarie maintains an 'outperform' rating on Dixon Technologies but has adjusted its target price from Rs 18,000 to Rs 15,000. The revision was attributed to an earnings miss, citing increased memory prices impacting mobile volumes and a weaker consumer durable segment. Macquarie forecasts that fiscal year 2027 will mark a trough for Dixon, with revenue growth and margin expansion expected to rebound in fiscal year 2028.
