Meanwhile, MIC Electronics Board Approves Fundraising of ₹250 Cr via QIB and $15 Mn through FCCBs
MIC Electronics Limited announced that its Board of Directors has approved a proposal to raise up to ₹250 crore through Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP) and $15 million via Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCBs). The proposed fundraising is subject to shareholder approval and other necessary regulatory clearances.
The company recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Chipex Technologies Private Limited to jointly develop custom semiconductor solutions. This collaboration aligns with MIC’s product roadmap and focuses on enhancing product differentiation, performance, and long-term supply stability through co-developed custom silicon instead of using standard off-the-shelf components.
The MoU outlines a collaborative framework where Chipex acts as the chip development partner and MIC serves as the OEM partner. Both companies will jointly identify, design, and develop semiconductor solutions tailored to MIC’s specific product requirements. This partnership combines technical expertise and domain experience to create silicon solutions optimized for performance, functionality, and integration within MIC’s product portfolio.
By using co-developed proprietary silicon, MIC Electronics aims to strengthen its technological foundation. The initiative is expected to deliver improved system performance and energy efficiency across application areas, ensure long-term supply assurance, and provide design ownership — all key elements for maintaining competitiveness in global markets.
