On July 7, 2025, Shakti Pumps (India) Limited announced that it successfully closed its Qualified Institutions Placement (QIP), raising ₹292.60 crore. The offering attracted strong interest from both existing and new institutional investors, highlighting their confidence in the company’s growth plans.

Funds to Fuel New Solar Manufacturing Plant

The funds raised will be used to build a greenfield manufacturing facility for high-efficiency solar DCR (Domestic Content Requirement) cells and solar PV modules. The plant will be set up in Pithampur, Madhya Pradesh, through Shakti Energy Solutions Limited, a subsidiary of Shakti Pumps. It will have a production capacity of 2.2 GW.
