In a strategic move aimed at bolstering its presence in the Indian market, SAIC Motor Corp Ltd's subsidiary, MG Motor India Pvt Ltd, is set to undergo significant equity restructuring. The company plans to introduce prominent investors, including JSW Ventures Singapore Pte Ltd, in a bid to reinforce its market position and mitigate operational risks.

JSW Ventures, a unit of JSW International Tradecorp Pte Ltd, is slated to acquire a substantial 35% stake in MG Motor India, valued at a hefty sum of 35.77 billion Indian rupees ($429.4 million).

Moreover, additional investments are slated from IndoEdge India Fund, acquiring an 8% stake for 8.18 billion Indian Rupees, alongside a dealer trust and an employee stock ownership plan securing 3% and 5% stakes respectively, totaling 3.07 billion and 5.11 billion Indian Rupees.

In a statement released by SAIC, the move is positioned as a strategic initiative to fortify MG Motor India's market presence and establish a robust foundation for continued growth.
