Dixon Technologies expects to complete its joint venture transaction with Chinese smartphone maker Vivo within the next two months, with revenue from the partnership expected to start reflecting in its financials from the October-December quarter. According to reports from PTI, Dixon CEO Atul Lall announced this development during a recent company earnings call, stating "Our Vivo JV is going to get fructified and a transaction concluded within the next two months. And the numbers are going to get accounted for in our financials from Q3." The joint venture proposal between Dixon and Vivo was cleared by the government in the second week of July, with the two companies having signed a term sheet on December 15, 2024, to form the joint venture. As per Business Standard, the company has set an indicative timeline of one year from execution for completion of conditions precedents for the transaction, though this can be extended through mutual agreement.
Dixon Technologies is expanding its corporate structure by incorporating a new subsidiary specifically for original equipment manufacturing (OEM) business. According to Business Standard, the company is currently under the process of incorporating a subsidiary with the name and style 'Adivistar Electronics India' wherein Dixon would be acquiring 51% equity shares comprising of 25,50,000 equity shares of ₹10/- each. The proposed company will undertake the original equipment manufacturing business of electronic devices, including smartphones, marking a strategic expansion beyond traditional manufacturing operations. The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has approved the proposed investment by Vivo Mobile India Pvt Ltd in the new subsidiary, with the remaining 49% stake held by Vivo Mobile India Pvt Ltd. The transaction involves an initial investment of ₹2.55 crore for Dixon's 51% equity stake.
The joint venture with Vivo is expected to significantly increase Dixon Technologies' consolidated mobile production capacity. As reported by PTI, Vivo currently leads the Indian smartphone market in volume terms, with the Chinese smartphone company estimated to have sold 3.5 crore handsets in 2025, while Dixon's mobile phone production volume was around 3.2 crore units. Lall said Dixon expects mobile phone production to remain in the same range of 3.2 to 3.3 crore units as recorded in the last fiscal. The JV is expected to reduce risk exposure to Vivo in India, which has faced action from the Enforcement Directorate, as it plans to hive off its manufacturing unit to the new venture.
