DCM Shriram Limited, a diversified industrial group, has taken a major step to boost its building systems business by investing in a hardware manufacturing firm. The company announced plans to acquire a controlling interest in DNV Global Private Limited, which will support its Fenesta division’s growth and efficiency.
The company will acquire a 53% equity stake in DNV Global for ₹44 crore. This includes an equity infusion of ₹31 crore and ₹13 crore to buy shares from existing promoters. DNV Global, a manufacturer and trader of door and window hardware, recorded a turnover of ₹60 crore and a net worth of ₹8.09 crore in FY25.
This acquisition will provide backwards integration for the Fenesta business by giving DCM Shriram direct control over hardware components. It also marks the company’s entry into a new manufacturing segment, enhancing its position in the fenestration industry and allowing better cost and supply management.
DCM Shriram operates across several sectors, including chemicals, sugar and building materials. With a strong presence in manufacturing and trading, the company has carved a niche in the windows and doors market through its Fenesta brand. Its latest move aligns with its strategy to strengthen and expand its consumer-oriented businesses.
