His statement came as Toshihiro Suzuki, representative director and president of Suzuki Motor Corp. £70,000 investment crore in India in 5-6 years to strengthen the country’s operation.
Later, the chairwoman of Maruti Suzuki India, RC Bhargava said the investment should be met by the company’s goal to achieve 40 lakh units per year.
“We are expanding to 4 million (units per year). So expanding the capacity of 4 million units, with all supportive infrastructure and research and development investments, and new technologies, all requires a lot of money,” Bhargava said when he asked about the investments.
About completing the second race to be established in Gujarat, which was announced last year for investment £35,000 crore, Bhargava said, “I hope to answer this question more specifically after the GST Council (September 4), because then everyone will estimate the impact of the GST decision on future growth.”
However, he refused to comment on the consequences of the proposed changes in the GST boards.
SUZUKI Group, which is part of Maruti Suzuki India, has already invested £1 lakh crore in India. These investments have also led to the creation of more than 11 LakH direct jobs in the value chain, according to the report.
On E Vitara Bhargava said it would be for the export markets, and there was no timeline to start the vehicle on the domestic market.

Toshihiro Suzuki said Gujarat, which serves customers throughout India and global markets, will soon become one of the world’s largest production nodes with a planned capacity of 10 lakh units.
He also said, “We chose this device for the production of E Vitara, our first Bev and make it a global production node for this model. We export this” Made-in-India Bev “to more than 100 countries, including Japan and Europe.”
The second main milestone of the company is “the opening of the first Indian lithium-ion batteries and cells with localization at the electrode level that is used in our hybrid vehicles,” Suzuki added.
These are produced in the Toshiba Denso Suzuki plant in India, he added. “With only the raw material and some semiconductor parts from Japan, it is a great greeting for Atmanirbhar Bharat. We use more Powertrain strategy, including electric, strong hybrid, ethanol flexion and compressed biogas, carbon and climate change,” Suzuki said.
