Manufacturing unicorn Zetwerk has earmarked an investment of Rs 1,000 crore to expand its electronic manufacturing capacity across IT hardware, television, mobile phones, hearable and wearable products.

The company aims to be a leading original design manufacturer and electronics manufacturing services provider in mobile phones, hearables and wearables.

“The company is now producing one device a second from its factories. It has earmarked Rs 1,000 crore investments to grow its Electronics business,” Zetwerk said in a statement.

Zetwerk plans to expand its capacity from 16 assembly lines at a factory at Noida, in Uttar Pradesh to 60 assembly lines (including surface-mount technology lines and PCB assembly) across six manufacturing facilities.

Valued at $2.8 billion (about Rs 23,300 crore), Zetwerk posted operating revenue of around Rs 11,450 crore in the financial year 2023.

The company is building high capacity for computer devices at its Bangalore facility that will focus on manufacturing motherboards, desktop PC power supplies, and other electronic components for major multinational corporations and original equipment manufacturers.

“Zetwerk views India’s electronics manufacturing sector as experiencing a transformative shift, akin to a Y2K moment, that will propel the nation towards a flourishing Viksit Bharat (developed India). Through this significant capacity expansion, we aim to act as the ‘teen powerhouse’ of Viksit Bharat,” Zetwerk Electronics President Josh Foulger said.

Zetwerk has also entered the television and display devices business by commissioning one of North India’s largest TV manufacturing facilities, with a production capacity of 24 lakh units annually to cater to both domestic and international brands.
