Dixon Seals ₹1 Billion Joint Venture With Longcheer

Through Dixtel Infocomm, Dixon Technologies and Longcheer Intelligence complete their ₹1 billion JV, set to manufacture smartphones, tablets, AI PCs and wearables.

Dixon Technologies has completed its joint venture (JV) agreement with Longcheer Intelligence, following government approval secured in 2025. The new entity, Dixtel Infocomm, will see Dixon hold a 74% stake through an investment of ₹73.9 million, while Longcheer will contribute ₹26 million for the remaining 26%.

The agreement, first announced in February 2026, is aimed at strengthening Dixon’s position in electronics manufacturing by securing production volumes. Longcheer, an original design manufacturer (ODM), is known for designing and producing entry-level smartphones for major brands including vivo, Oppo and Samsung.

Dixtel Infocomm was initially incorporated in 2023 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dixon, with a paid-up capital of ₹1 billion. With the JV structure now in place, the entity will operate with full regulatory clearance.

The venture will focus on manufacturing and supplying a range of consumer electronics, including smartphones, tablets, AI-enabled personal computers and smartwatches. Dixon has previously highlighted that the partnership will allow it to expand capabilities while ensuring consistent demand from global clients.

According to a report by The Economic Times, industry observers note that the collaboration combines Dixon’s manufacturing expertise with Longcheer’s design capabilities, positioning the venture to compete in the fast-growing smart device segment.

The move also reflects Dixon’s broader strategy of diversifying its product portfolio and strengthening ties with international technology partners.

With the JV operational, Dixon Technologies is expected to enhance its role as a contract manufacturer in India’s expanding electronics ecosystem, while Longcheer gains a stronger foothold in the local market through production scale and regulatory alignment.
