Dixon Tech arm inks IP licence pact with Aviat Networks for microwave radios
Dixon Technologies' subsidiary, Dixon Electro Appliances, signed an IP license agreement with Aviat Networks to manufacture microwave radios. This deal supports Dixon's expansion into higher-value electronics and telecom products. Recent brokerage reports show mixed views on Dixon's stock, with Nuvama cutting FY27 EPS estimates but raising FY28 estimates, while JPMorgan maintained an 'Overweight' rating. Dixon's Q1 revenue rose 21.1% YoY to ₹15,548 crore, but EBITDA fell 4.1% YoY to ₹463 crore.
