Samvardhana Motherson International Limited (SAMIL) has made headlines with its stock reaching an all-time high, rising by over 1.5%. The stock’s surge follows the successful completion of a Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP), where the company raised INR 6,438 crore. This has not only strengthened investor confidence but also solidified SAMIL’s position in the market.
The QIP, which concluded on September 20, 2024, attracted substantial interest from both domestic and international institutional investors. Over 95% of the allotment was made to marquee long-term investors, including mutual funds, pension funds, and foreign institutional investors. The capital raised included equity shares worth Rs 4,938 crore and Compulsorily Convertible Debentures (CCDs) amounting Rs 1,500 crore
The QIP was priced at Rs 190 per share, slightly above the floor price of Rs 188.85 per share as per SEBI ICDR regulations. The overwhelming demand led to significant diversification in the company’s shareholder base. High-profile investors such as ICICI Prudential and SBI contributed to the success, each receiving a large portion of the equity and CCDs.
With this capital infusion, SAMIL plans to primarily focus on debt repayment, which will enhance its financial flexibility. The company’s leadership has expressed gratitude towards its investors, highlighting that this QIP reinforces confidence in their strategic growth plans and long-standing relationships with global Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs).
SAMIL is a global engineering and manufacturing giant, serving nearly all major automobile manufacturers across 44 countries. The company has also diversified into non-automotive sectors, including aerospace, health, medical, and technology solutions. Ranked among the top 15 automotive suppliers globally, SAMIL continues to drive shareholder value with its progressive and dynamic approach to business.
