Samvardhana Motherson International (SAMIL) plans to acquire an 81% stake in Yachiyo Industry Co, a subsidiary of Honda Motor. The purchase price for this acquisition is set at Rs 10.59 billion.

Yachiyo Industry Co. specialises in manufacturing various components for automobiles, including sunroof systems, fuel tanks, and exterior resin parts like bumpers and rear-side windows for pickup trucks.

This acquisition marks SAMIL's second global purchase in 2023. In February, they had previously announced the acquisition of SAS Autosystemtechnik GmbH & Co.KG (SAS) from Faurecia, a French company, for a total of Rs 47.90 billion.
