Dixon Technologies Stock Gains 2% Amid Expansion Plans with Taiwanese Partner and Potential Vivo Joint Venture
Dixon Technologies to Enter Data Centre Hardware Segment with Taiwanese Partner
Shares of Dixon Technologies rose over 2 percent on Thursday, driven by the company's plans to enter the fast-growing data centre hardware segment through a partnership with a Taiwanese company. The electronics manufacturer also announced a new manufacturing facility in Chennai.
The partnership, which involves a global leader in IT hardware and data centre-related solutions, is expected to enable Dixon to manufacture laptops and desktops in India. A new facility being set up in Chennai is expected to become operational within the next eight to ten months.
This development marks Dixon's latest push beyond its core mobile phone and consumer electronics manufacturing business, as it seeks to tap into rising demand for IT hardware and data centre infrastructure. Demand for such equipment has been growing globally amid rapid investments in artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing and data centres.

India, too, has seen a wave of announcements around new data centre projects and digital infrastructure investments in recent years. Besides expanding into the IT hardware segment, Dixon remains hopeful of receiving regulatory approval for its proposed joint venture with Vivo. However, the management did not provide any fresh timeline, stating only that the proposal remains under active consideration by the government.
The Vivo venture has been awaiting approval for several months and could add 12-15 million units of manufacturing volume in the first year of operations. Dixon Technologies reported a revenue of Rs 10,510 crore in the January-March quarter of FY26, with an adjusted profit after tax of Rs 181 crore and operating margins of 3.9 percent. The company's stock was trading at Rs 11,461 in afternoon trade, up 2.1 percent for the day.
Investor Takeaway
Investors should consider Dixon Technologies as a potential beneficiary of the growing data centre hardware segment.
