Amber Enterprises had also recently acquired another major PCB manufacturer Ascent Circuits, and has plans to spend ₹3,000 crore on HDI PCB in its joint venture (JV) with Korea Circuits.
Brokerage firm Kotak Institutional Equities maintained its “add” rating on the stock with a price target of ₹8,200 apiece, which implies an upside potential of 10.8% from Friday’s closing price.The brokerage sees this acquisition helping Amber Enterprises cement its leadership position in the domestic PCB segment and expects PCBs to contribute more than 40% of the company’s $1 billion electronics segment revenue target by financial year 2028.
Amber Group’s executive chairman and CEO Jasbir Singh said Shogini strengthens the bare PCB vertical and the group’s progression into a leading full-stack, backward-integrated electronics manufacturing services (EMS) company.
“Together with Ascent Circuits’ existing facility, the upcoming new facility, and our strategic JV with Korea Circuit, we are laying a strong foundation to emerge as a leading PCB manufacturer in the country, offering comprehensive solution across single-sided, double-sided, multi-layer, HDI, flex and semi-conductor substrate PCBs,” he added.
Abhijit Tamhankar, Chairman & Managing Director of Shogini, said together with Amber Group, the company aims to accelerate growth, empower teams and enhance value to their customers across diverse sectors.
