Syrma + SGS Tekniks = Syrma SGS

Syrma SGS Technology is a new entity formed in September 2021, following the acquisition of Gurugram-based SGS Tekniks by Syrma Technology in a cash and stock deal. The combination added manufacturing and R&D capabilities and supplier network, giving headroom for growth to the merged entity. It is also noteworthy that there was little to no overlap of customers and geographies. Subsequently, the company acquired Perfect ID in October 2021, bolstering the infrastructure and technical know-how for the production of RFID label tags and passive inlay tags.

Figures in INR crore unless specified otherwise

Companies from the EMS sector have given some robust gains in the past. Two players from this space, Dixon Technologies and Amber Enterprises have rewarded investors very well while another one – Elin Electronics – has recently filed draft prospectus with SEBI. As such, Syrma SGS Technology IPO will be keenly watched by market participants.
