Standex Buys Out Narayan Powertech India Stake for $64M
Standex International acquires the remaining 9.9% of India's Narayan Powertech, completing full ownership for $64 million.
Standex International just went all-in on India. The industrial manufacturer has snapped up the remaining 9.9% stake in Narayan Powertech, an Indian power solutions company, for $64 million — completing a full buyout and taking 100% ownership.
This isn't a small side bet. Paying $64 million for less than 10% of a company signals serious conviction in Narayan Powertech's valuation and growth trajectory. India's power infrastructure buildout is one of the hottest long-term themes in emerging markets right now, and Standex is planting its flag firmly in that space.

For traders watching Standex, full ownership means the company now consolidates Narayan Powertech's financials entirely — no minority interest drag, no shared decision-making. That's a cleaner earnings story going forward, assuming India's energy demand keeps expanding the way analysts expect.
The move also reflects a broader trend of U.S. industrials deepening their India exposure as manufacturers diversify away from China-centric supply chains. Standex isn't just chasing growth — it's repositioning itself as a serious player in one of the world's fastest-growing energy markets.
