Rs 35,000 crore investment linked to Maruti plant during Japanese PM’s visit


Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi are expected to inaugurate Maruti Suzuki India’s new manufacturing plant at Haryana’s Kharkhoda on Wednesday, marking one of the biggest investments in the Indian automobile sector in recent years, marking another milestone in the Indo-Japan economic partnership.

The inauguration coincides with the India-Japan Economic Forum, attended by more than 150 Japanese companies as the two countries seek to deepen cooperation in manufacturing, semiconductors, artificial intelligence, clean energy and mobility.

Ahead of the summit, Japan’s Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Masanao Ozaki said in a message on X that he hoped the visit would lead to “a concrete and remarkable development in economic relations between Japan and India.”

Citing Japanese daily Yomiuri Shimbun, Ozaki said about 120 cooperation initiatives worth nearly 2 trillion yen (about $12.5 billion) are expected to be announced during the visit, highlighting India’s growing importance as a destination for Japanese investment.

MARUTI’S FOURTH MANUFACTURING PLANT IN INDIA

The Kharkhoda plant is Maruti Suzuki’s fourth manufacturing plant in India after Gurugram, Manesar and Gujarat.

Currently, two manufacturing units of the plant are operational with a combined installed production capacity of 5 lakh vehicles per annum. The company plans to gradually expand the factory’s production capacity to 10 lakh vehicles per year.

Spread over nearly 800 acres, the facility includes an integrated supplier park aimed at strengthening the manufacturing ecosystem and improving operational efficiencies.

Maruti Suzuki has earmarked a total investment of Rs 35,000 crore for India.

The fully developed Kharkhoda manufacturing complex, which is expected to create over 21,000 direct jobs, in addition to generating significant employment through ancillary industries, logistics providers and component manufacturers.

A PLANT BUILT FOR THE FUTURE

The Kharkhoda facility has been designed around the company’s ‘Suzuki Smart Factory’ concept and incorporates Industry 5.0-enabled manufacturing technologies.

The factory will use AI-powered, human-aware collaborative robots, or cobots, to improve manufacturing precision, productivity and workplace safety.

Sustainability was also integrated into the project. The facility will run on 100% renewable electricity, feature 100% water recycling and operate as a manufacturing unit with no liquid discharge.

Maruti Suzuki also plans to commission a biogas plant in FY 2026-27, develop an in-house solar power plant with a capacity of up to 70 MW as production increases, and construct a railway siding at the plant to support greener logistics.

According to the company, the Kharkhoda project is a key milestone in its ‘Make in India, Make for the World’ strategy and an important step in expanding its manufacturing capabilities in the country.

Maruti Suzuki remains the largest passenger vehicle manufacturer in India, accounting for almost half of all passenger vehicle sales in the country.

The expansion of its manufacturing footprint comes as India positions itself as a global automotive manufacturing hub while Japanese companies continue to increase investments across multiple sectors.

The inauguration by Prime Minister Modi and Prime Minister Takaichi not only marks the opening of another manufacturing facility, but also highlights the growing strategic and economic partnership between India and Japan, with manufacturing remaining at the core of bilateral cooperation.
