Promoters of switch maker Norisys weighs stake sale, engages banker

The promoters of Faridabad-based Norisys Technology Pvt Ltd, a premium electrical switches and accessories maker, have engaged Alvarez & Marsal to explore a potential stake sale, according to two people familiar with the matter.

“The company is seeking an overall valuation of ₹5,000–6,000 crore. The exact deal structures are yet to be decided as it is still early days but it is likely to be a majority stake sale,” one of the people said.

“It is an extremely profitable company even at a small scale and has grown well in the last few years, so several large private equity players will be tapped to test demand for the asset,” according to the second person. Both people spoke on the condition of anonymity.

India’s electrical equipment market is projected to cross $95 billion by 2029, driven by infrastructure expansion, rapid urbanization and rising premiumization in residential and commercial demand, according to industry estimates. The space is dominated by players such as Havells, Panasonic’s Anchor, Schneider Electric, ABB, Siemens, CG Power, KEI Industries, Polycab, Legrand and Wipro Northwest across categories.

If the deal goes through, this will likely be the first round of external funding for the company. Norisys and A&M did not respond to Mint’s requests for comment on Tuesday.

Its profit increased slightly to ₹105.91 crore from ₹103.60 crore in FY24, according to Tofler data sourced from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
