    Online Instruments IPO

    Audiovisual and collaboration technologies have become an important part of modern workplaces, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, and public-sector organisations. As demand for integrated technology solutions continues to grow, companies operating in this space are also expanding their business and accessing the capital markets.

    One such company is Online Instruments (India) Limited, which filed its Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) with SEBI on 8 May 2026 to raise funds through an Initial Public Offer (IPO). The company operates in two key segments—audio-visual systems integration and electronics manufacturing—and offers AVSI solutions, interactive flat panel displays, LED displays, audiovisual accessories, electronics manufacturing services, and commercial lighting.

    This article draws on the DRHP to present key details about the company, its financials and the proposed issue in a straightforward format.

    The issue has two parts — a Fresh Issue and an Offer for Sale (OFS). Money raised through the Fresh Issue goes to the company. It plans to use the funds for repaying certain borrowings, meeting working capital needs, pursuing inorganic growth and covering general corporate expenses.

    The OFS involves promoter shareholders selling their existing shares. Those proceeds go directly to the selling shareholders, not the company. The final issue size, price band, lot size and dates will be declared later.

    About the Company

    Company Background

    Online Instruments (India) Limited started as a private limited company, incorporated in February 2006. Before the IPO, it was converted into a public limited company and given its current name.

    The company is headquartered in Bengaluru, Karnataka. According to the DRHP, it operates in the audiovisual systems integration and electronics manufacturing businesses and serves customers in India as well as selected international markets. O

    Business Overview

    Online Instruments works across several technology segments. Its offerings include:

    • Audiovisual systems integration (AVSI) solutions

    • Interactive flat panel displays (IFPDs)

    • LED display products

    • Audiovisual accessories

    • Electronics manufacturing services (EMS)

    • Commercial and architectural lighting products

    On the AVSI side, the company handles installations for conference rooms, auditoriums, unified communications setups, command centres and customer experience centres.

    The company markets its offerings under the brands Online Instruments, LOGIC, Level 3 Audiovisual and Orange Plus.

    Manufacturing happens at its Bengaluru facilities. Internationally, the company runs subsidiaries and offices in the United States, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, the Philippines and the UAE.

    Revenue Model

    Revenue comes in from across the business. The main sources are:

    • Audiovisual systems integration projects

    • Interactive flat panel display sales

    • LED display product sales

    • Audiovisual accessory sales

    • Electronics manufacturing services

    • Commercial and architectural lighting products

    AVSI solutions bring in the biggest share of revenue, per the DRHP. Display product sales and related technology solutions add to that. The company has also stepped into electronics manufacturing by producing white-labelled IFPDs for OEM clients.

    Industry Position

    Online Instruments is in the professional AV integration and display solutions space. Its customer base spans enterprise, healthcare, banking, manufacturing, education, retail and airports.

    The company combines AVSI capabilities with in-house manufacturing infrastructure, allowing it to operate across multiple stages of the value chain. Online Instruments does both, and its Bengaluru plant includes a completely knocked down (CKD) assembly line for interactive flat panel displays, which gives it more control over quality and product customisation.

    Industry Overview

    The AV integration and display technology sector has grown alongside the spread of digital workplaces, hybrid work setups and smart education infrastructure. Factors pushing this growth include:

    • Wider adoption of hybrid work models

    • Demand for smart conference rooms and collaboration spaces

    • Digital classroom and edtech infrastructure rollouts

    • Command centre and control room expansion

    • LED display deployments across industries

    • Commercial and architectural lighting projects

    • Enterprise and government digital transformation

    • Demand for interactive display technologies

    Domestic manufacturing initiatives have also given a push to the electronics manufacturing segment. Demand in this space may continue to be supported by ongoing investments in communication and collaboration infrastructure.

    Strengths of Online Instruments (India) Limited

    1. Integrated Business Model

    The company operates in both audiovisual systems integration and electronics manufacturing, allowing it to offer products and services across different stages of the value chain. 

    2. Diversified Product and Service Portfolio

    Its offerings include AVSI solutions, interactive flat panel displays, LED displays, audiovisual accessories, electronics manufacturing services, and commercial lighting products. 

    3. International Presence

    According to the DRHP, the company conducts business in India and selected international markets through its subsidiaries, branch offices, and project execution teams. 

    4. Manufacturing Infrastructure

    The company operates manufacturing facilities in Bengaluru for display products and related solutions, including a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) assembly line for interactive flat panel displays. 

    5. Long-Term Customer Relationships

    The company serves customers across multiple industries, including Indian and multinational organisations, through its audiovisual integration and electronics manufacturing businesses. 

    Risks Associated with the Business

    Dependence on AVSI Revenue

    Most of the company's revenue comes from AV integration projects. If project activity slows down for any reason, financial performance could take a hit.

    Technology Obsolescence Risk

    The markets the company operates in move fast. Products and solutions may need regular upgrades to stay relevant, which adds to costs and execution pressure.

    Project Execution Risk

    The company's audiovisual systems integration business involves the execution of complex projects that require coordination across multiple stages. Delays in project completion, supply chain disruptions, or higher-than-expected execution costs may affect project timelines, operating margins, and customer commitments. 

    Dependence on Imported Components

    Several products and manufacturing operations use imported parts. Disruptions in supply, price increases or shifts in trade policy could push costs up.

    Competitive Industry Environment

    The AV integration and display market has both Indian and international players. That level of competition keeps pricing pressure elevated.

    Working Capital Requirements

    Running projects, holding inventory and keeping manufacturing lines going all require working capital. If funding tightens, growth could be constrained.

    International Operations Risk

    Operating in multiple countries brings added exposure — regulatory differences, geopolitical tensions, currency movements and local operational challenges all apply.

    Key Things Investors May Consider

    Investors may consider evaluating the following aspects before assessing the IPO:

    • The company's position within the audiovisual systems integration (AVSI) industry.

    • The contribution of each business segment to the company's overall revenue.

    • Trends in the company's financial performance over the past few financial years.

    • The scale and capabilities of its manufacturing operations and product portfolio.

    • The structure and contribution of its international operations.

    • Working capital requirements and the company's approach to managing them.
