Maruti Suzuki Begins Production at Kharkhoda Plant

Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), the country’s largest carmaker, announced that it has commenced commercial production at its Kharkhoda facility in Haryana. The plant, which initially has an annual production capacity of 250,000 units, will manufacture the compact SUV Brezza. With the addition of this facility, Maruti Suzuki, along with its wholly owned subsidiary Suzuki Motor Gujarat Private Limited, now boasts a total annual production capacity of 2.6 million units. In addition to Kharkhoda, MSIL operates three other manufacturing plants in India—two in Haryana (Gurgaon and Manesar) and one in Gujarat (Hansalpur).

The company is aggressively expanding its production capabilities with an aim to reach a capacity of 4 million units by the financial year 2030-31. The decision to establish the Kharkhoda plant was first announced in 2022, with a planned peak production capacity of 1 million units per annum at an estimated investment of Rs 180 billion. Meanwhile, Suzuki Motor Corporation, Maruti Suzuki’s parent company, has outlined ambitious investment plans of nearly Rs 700 billion in India over the next five years as it seeks to reclaim a 50% market share in the Indian automobile sector.
