While Mitsubishi Pencil will bring its advanced technology, Linc with over 30 years of exclusively distributing Mitsubishi's 'Uni' and 'Uniball' pens, will leverage its sales and distribution expertise across India to market the products, the company said in a regulatory filing.

Mitsubishi Pencil Company will hold 51 per cent stake in the new JV and Linc will have the rest 49 per cent. The JV is scheduled to start operations from January 2025, the filing said.

"This joint venture allows us to offer advanced Japanese technology at more affordable price points, creating a unique synergy between innovation and market expertise," Linc Ltd Managing Director Deepak Jalan said.
