As per the exchange filing by the company. The demerger follows a 1:1 share allotment ratio, meaning that "for every one fully paid-up share of Siemens Ltd. (₹2 face value), investors will receive one fully paid-up share of SEIL (₹2 face value)."

Siemens Share Price Target: Analysts' Take

Brokerages have reacted positively to the demerger, with Motilal Oswal predicting an 11% upside for Siemens India shares. Their latest report indicates a target price of Rs. 7,087 for Siemens Ltd.

Motilal Oswal noted that "Siemens' 1QFY25 demerged financials showed revenue falling 9% below estimates, while profit after tax (PAT) exceeded estimates by 3%. Revenue grew 4% year-on-year (YoY), while PAT surged 22% YoY, mainly driven by the energy segment.

However, other segments, including smart infrastructure, digital industries, and mobility, have experienced slower growth due to weak private sector capital expenditure (capex). Analysts expect a gradual recovery in these segments, but with a slower-than-expected pickup."

Motilal Oswal maintains a neutral rating on Siemens Ltd with a revised target price of Rs 5,750, based on 55x Mar 27 estimates for the combined entity. Analysts suggest revisiting the estimates once full-year demerged financials are available.
