Strategic Acquisition of Automech Group
Rama Steel Tubes, alongside its subsidiary RST International Trading FZE, is executing a 100% acquisition of Automech Group Holding Limited for an aggregate consideration of AED 296 million.

The acquisition completion date has been formally extended to December 15, 2026, under an amended Share Purchase Agreement to finalize the transfer of ownership.
Financial and Industry Context
Rama Steel Tubes operates in the Iron and Steel Products industry, specializing in ERW steel tubes. The company reported TTM revenue of ₹1,079.32 crore but faces a challenging profitability environment, with a TTM P/E of 56.79 compared to the industry average of 34.79. While annual revenue showed a 7.28% growth, net profit declined by 44.71% in the last fiscal year.
