ABB India shares hit the 10% upper circuit and a fresh 52-week high after parent ABB Ltd reported an 81% year-on-year rise in India orders. Record global orders, a $5.5 billion acquisition of Rotork, and expansion into power conversion solutions further lifted investor sentiment.
ABB India Ltd shares surged on Thursday after its parent company, ABB Ltd, reported a sharp rise in orders from India during the June quarter. The stock hit the 10% upper circuit at ₹7,924.50 and touched a fresh 52-week high during the session.
The rally also marked the third straight day of gains for the stock. ABB India opened higher at ₹7,210.50 before climbing to its day's high of ₹7,924.50. The strong move came after investors reacted positively to the parent company's better-than-expected order growth and a series of strategic announcements.
ABB Ltd's Q2 2026 results showed that orders from India grew 81% year-on-year. This was well ahead of market expectations of around 20% growth and highlighted the continued strength of demand across the country.
The global technology company also reported record quarterly orders of $12.04 billion, up 30% from the same period last year. According to the company, the growth was supported by rising investments in AI-driven data centres, power grid upgrades and industrial automation.
Alongside its quarterly earnings, ABB Ltd announced its largest acquisition to date. The company has agreed to acquire British automation company Rotork in a deal valued at around $5.5 billion.
Under the proposed transaction, Rotork shareholders will receive 503 pence in cash for each share. This represents a premium of nearly 60% over the company's three-month average share price.
ABB also announced another strategic acquisition on Wednesday. The company will acquire France-based Advantics, a specialist in Silicon Carbide-based power conversion solutions. The acquisition is expected to strengthen ABB's direct current portfolio and improve its position in fast-growing markets. These include AI data centres, industrial microgrids, power generation and electric vehicle infrastructure.
In March 2026, parent company ABB announced plans to invest $75 million to expand local manufacturing and R&D capabilities in India. More recently, in July 2026, TCS signed a multi-million dollar, multi-year partnership with ABB to transform its global network operations using AI.
