Pricol Limited’s board has approved a scheme of arrangement to demerge its Driver Information & Connected Vehicle Solutions (DICVS) business to Pricol Autotech Limited, a strategic move intended to create two focused business platforms. The DICVS business, which focuses on smart mobility and integrated electronic solutions, recorded a turnover of ₹2,424.63 crores for the financial year ending March 31, 2026. This figure represents 61.17% of the total consolidated turnover of the company for the same period.

The demerger aims to segregate the DICVS undertaking from the remaining businesses of Pricol Limited, allowing each entity to concentrate on its respective core activities. Pricol Limited will retain the Actuation, Control & Fluid Management Systems (ACFMS) and Precision Products (P3L) businesses. The board believes this structure will enable faster decision-making, reduce operational complexity, and improve capital allocation aligned with specific business portfolios.

Share Entitlement and Listing

Pricol Autotech Limited, currently a wholly-owned subsidiary, will issue shares to the shareholders of Pricol Limited upon the scheme becoming effective. There is no cash consideration involved in the transaction. The share entitlement ratio is set at 1:1, meaning shareholders will receive one fully paid-up equity share of Pricol Autotech Limited, with a face value of ₹1, for every one fully paid-up equity share of ₹1 held in Pricol Limited.

The entire paid-up equity share capital of Pricol Autotech Limited held by Pricol Limited will be cancelled and reduced. The resulting company will seek listing on the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited, subject to requisite approvals.

Shareholding Pattern

The demerger will alter the shareholding pattern of the resulting company, Pricol Autotech Limited, which is currently fully owned by Pricol Limited. Post-scheme, the shareholding will mirror that of the parent company.

Veda Corporate Advisors Private Limited serves as the corporate advisor, while Khaitan & Co and Ramani & Shankar Advocates are the legal advisors. Saffron Capital Advisors Private Limited is the merchant banker, and SSPA & Co., Chartered Accountants, acted as the registered valuer.
