The acquisition will give the French industrial technology giant full ownership of its India operations, enabling faster decision-making and deeper integration of India into its global strategy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Strengthening India as a Global Growth and Innovation Hub<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The acquisition reinforces Schneider Electric&rsquo;s commitment to India as a core growth market, regional manufacturing base, and innovation hub. The company emphasized that India is not just a key domestic market. It also serves as a critical platform for R&amp;D, supply chain, and exports across the Asia-Pacific region and other emerging markets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&ldquo;India is one of the key focus markets of Schneider Electric for the years to come,&rdquo; said Olivier Blum, Chief Executive Officer. &ldquo;We are excited to capture the full growth potential of this unique opportunity and leverage our exceptional talent in R&amp;D, digital, and supply chain,&rdquo; Blum added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Business Performance and Expansion Plans<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2024, Schneider Electric India reported statutory revenues of &euro;1.8 billion. Total sales across all Indian entities reached &euro;2.5 billion. The company expects double-digit compound annual growth in the coming years, fueled by India&rsquo;s robust economic momentum. To support this growth, Schneider plans to expand its manufacturing capacity by 2.5 to 3 times. This expansion aligns with national initiatives like &ldquo;Make in India&rdquo; and &ldquo;Digital India.&rdquo; The company has maintained a strong local presence for over 60 years and operates extensive R&amp;D capabilities in the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Strategic Rationale and Long-Term Vision<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Schneider Electric described the buyout as a logical next step in its long-term investment in India. The company considers India its third-largest market and one of its four global hubs. The move is designed to streamline governance, strengthen operational agility, and capitalize on India&rsquo;s economic tailwinds. &ldquo;Considering Schneider&rsquo;s strong belief in the future potential of its India business, timing is opportune to take full control and capitalize on future value creation,&rdquo; the company stated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Building on Past Collaborations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Schneider Electric builds on its 2018 partnership with Temasek. That year, both companies jointly acquired Larsen &amp; Toubro&rsquo;s Electrical and Automation business, which they later rebranded as Lauritz Knudsen. That deal set the stage for deeper collaboration in India&rsquo;s energy and automation sectors.<\/p>\n<p><span style='font-size:18px !important;'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/companyname\/se.com_30384.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">ABC Private Limited<\/a><br \/><strong>Contact Person:<\/strong> Media Relations<br \/><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/email_contact_us.php?pr=schneider-electric-to-acquire-full-ownership-of-india-unit\" rel=\"nofollow\">Send Email<\/a><br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> India<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.se.com\/in\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.se.com\/in\/en\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/press_stat.php?pr=schneider-electric-to-acquire-full-ownership-of-india-unit\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Schneider Electric announced that it will acquire the remaining 35% stake in its Indian subsidiary, Schneider Electric India Private Limited, from Singapore&rsquo;s Temasek Holdings for &euro;5.5 billion in cash.
