Motoring along |
The Singapore-based Pricey Fund, who has been an active investor in India, has decided to take an exposure to Igarashi Motors. The fund is said to have bought some six lakh shares at Rs 205 levels. |
Auto ancillary company, Igarashi Motors makes motors and related sub-assemblies at its plant in Chennai. The company is modelling itself to become a full service supplier (related to motors), in global markets. |
According to those in the know, with the industry becoming more and more competitive, suppliers who would design, engineer and produce a particular part are likely to emerge successful. |
Of the top 10 global system integrators, Igarashi is working with Bosch, Delphi, Visteon and Arvin Meritor. After a steady rise from Rs 95 levels a year back to Rs 230 levels by the end of August this year, the stock has been on the decline. Pricey Fund obviously thinks it is a good opportunity to get into the counter. |
