SPR Auto Technologies (formerly Shriram Pistons & Rings) has raised ₹1,000 crore through a qualified institutional placement of 23,36,448 equity shares. Khaitan & Co advised the company on the transaction, with a team led by partners Gautham Srinivas and Sathvik Ponnappa.

Trilegal advised the lead managers Axis Capital and Emkay Global Financial Services, with a team led by partner Vinay Sirohia. The company, part of the Shriram Group with over five decades of operations, has expanded from manufacturing pistons and rings into a diversified engineering group serving automotive and non-automotive sectors.
QIPs are a faster route for listed companies to raise capital without going through a public offer, requiring only board approval and a special resolution from shareholders. For SPR Auto Technologies, the ₹1,000 crore infusion comes as it transitions from a niche piston maker into a broader engineering group serving both automotive and non-automotive sectors. The company, part of the decades-old Shriram Group, competes with larger peers in a capital-intensive industry where such placements often signal expansion plans or debt restructuring. Investors will watch for the company's next quarterly filing to see how the funds are deployed, particularly whether they target new product lines or capacity expansion.
