Optiemus Infracom, a manufacturer of wearables and telecom equipment, is seeking to raise approximately Rs400 crore to expand its manufacturing operations and improve its brand reputation in preparation for entering the market of producing and selling screen protectors and mobile phone cover glass.
The money will be allocated toward growing the company's production operations and marketing expenditures. According to industry experts familiar with the situation, the company intends to broaden its manufacturing operations to include the production of laptops and notebooks under the IT hardware production-linked incentive program. Currently, negotiations are underway with a multinational corporation, and it is anticipated that production for this brand will commence within the next 3-6 months.
The funds raised would be allocated to two subsidiaries: Rs 80 crore to Optiemus Electronics and Rs 60 crore to GDN Enterprises.
This venture would be carried out under a licensing agreement with Corning, a US-based company.
