Solar Industries to acquire explosives maker Sivasakthi for ₹115.02 crore

Subsidiary Solar Explochem has signed a share purchase agreement to buy 100% of Sivasakthi Industrial Explosives in an all-cash deal set to close within 12 months.

What was filed

Solar Industries India Limited told the NSE and BSE that its wholly owned subsidiary, Solar Explochem Limited, signed a Share Purchase Agreement on October 15, 2026 to acquire the entire issued and paid-up equity share capital of Sivasakthi Industrial Explosives Private Limited. The filing describes the purchase as a cash consideration, with completion expected within 12 months, subject to terms to be mutually agreed. No governmental or regulatory approvals are stated as applicable.

The target

Sivasakthi is a private company incorporated in 2008 in India, engaged in the manufacture, production, processing and trading of explosives for industrial mining and other purposes — the same line of business as the acquirer. The stated objective of the deal is business expansion within the explosives industry. The filing notes the transaction is not a related party transaction and that the promoter group has no interest in the entity being acquired.

A note on the target's revenue

The disclosed turnover history is small and declining: per the filing, Sivasakthi recorded nil turnover in FY2025-26, following figures in the low tens of lakhs in the two prior years. The consideration therefore sits well above the target's recent reported revenue — a point a holder may wish to read alongside the stated rationale of business expansion rather than current earnings.

Target turnover
₹1,26,11,375 → ₹34,99,675 → NilFY24 → FY25 → FY26
Total consideration
₹115.02 crore
Stake acquired
100%
Completion timeline
Within 12 months

The deal adds a wholly owned explosives manufacturer to Solar Industries' subsidiary group through an all-cash purchase; for a holder, the relevance lies in the use of cash and the stated expansion rationale, given the target's disclosed turnover is nil in the latest reported year.
