The largest automaker in India, Maruti Suzuki, plans to increase its production capacity by constructing a new plant with one million-unit capacity. Maruti Suzuki is making the move in an effort to meet the rising demand for its cars and maintain its position as a major player in the Indian auto industry. The plan to install the extra capacity has been given board approval by Maruti Suzuki, but the firm has not yet decided how to phase it out. According to RC Bhargava, the company's chairman, the additional capacity would call for a completely new plant, and Maruti Suzuki is currently looking into locations and for land to erect the facility. It is anticipated that a decision will be made soon regarding the new plant's location.
