Himadri Speciality Chemical is all set to acquire 16.24 per cent stake in International Battery Company (IBC) to increase its presence in the mobility and energy storage sectors. The company has already made an investment of $4.43 million (around Rs 37.47 crore) in the US-based technology developer and manufacturer of lithium-ion (Li-ion) cells.

The Bengaluru Gigafactory is scheduled to commence operations by the fourth quarter of FY2025-26. Through partnership, the company aims to play a pivotal role in India’s energy transition. The Bengaluru facility will cater to last-mile B2B fleet providers and 2- and 3-wheeler OEMs, while also supporting global battery cell exports.
