Vijay Kedia has made headlines by purchasing a 1.1% stake in Precision Camshafts Ltd for ₹14.1 crore, a significant move given the company’s current market capitalisation of ₹1,353.55 crore. The shares of Precision Camshafts Ltd closed at ₹142.50 per share, reflecting a strategic entry point for Kedia.
Despite a revenue decline of 8.1%, from ₹194.55 crore to ₹178.68 crore, the company has turned around its fortunes, shifting from a loss of ₹6.36 crore to a profit of ₹9.21 crore. This turnaround is noteworthy, especially as the operating profit improved from ₹8.15 crore in December 2024 to ₹14.42 crore in December 2025, with the operating profit margin rising from 4.19% to 8.07%.
Precision Camshafts Ltd, a leading manufacturer of camshafts and critical engine components for both passenger and commercial vehicles, has a robust order book extending until 2032, with a lifetime potential of ₹1,500 crore. This positions the company favorably for future growth, especially as it invests around ₹120 crore in capacity expansion and advanced manufacturing.
Exports play a crucial role in the company’s revenue, contributing approximately 50%. The firm serves global automotive OEMs, leveraging its strong engineering capabilities to maintain a competitive edge in the market.
Observers are keen to see how Kedia’s investment will influence Precision Camshafts’ strategic direction and market performance moving forward. The company’s ability to sustain its recovery and capitalize on its order book will be critical in the coming months.
