Shares of Dixon Technologies surged 4% on July 16 after the company announced signing an agreement to acquire a 51% stake in Kunshan Q Tech Microelectronics (Q Tech India), marking a strong move in its efforts to strengthen capabilities in high tech component manufacturing.

The proposed deal, which will be executed through a combination of primary and secondary investments, aims to bolster Dixon’s presence in the production of camera and fingerprint recognition modules, components that are increasingly central to mobile handsets, IoT devices, and automotive applications.

Q Tech India, a subsidiary of Q Technology (Singapore) Pte and Kunshan Q Technology International, both part of the global Q Tech Group, will provide Dixon access to advanced technologies, precision manufacturing, and a skilled talent base.
