Maruti Udyog Limited (MUL), established in 1981, had a prime objective to meet the growing demand of a personal mode of transport, which is caused due to lack of efficient public transport system. The incorporation of the company was through an Act of Parliament.
Suzuki Motor Company of Japan was chosen from seven other prospective partners worldwide. Suzuki was due not only to its undisputed leadership in small cars but also to commitments to actively bring to MUL contemporary technology and Japanese management practices (that had catapulted Japan over USA to the status of the top auto manufacturing country in the world).
A licence and a Joint Venture agreement was signed between Government of India and Suzuki Motor Company (now Suzuki Motor Corporation of Japan) in Oct 1982.
The objectives of MUL, then are as cited below:
Modernization of the Indian Automobile Industry.
Production of fuel-efficient vehicles to conserve scarce resources.
Production of large number of motor vehicles which was necessary for economic growth.
In 2001, MUL became one of the first automobile companies, globally, to be honoured with an ISO 9000:2000 certificate. The production/ R&D is spread across 297 acres with 3 fully-integrated production facilities. The MUL plant has already rolled out 4.3 million vehicles. The fact says that, on an average two vehicles roll out of the factory in every single minute. The company takes approximately 14 hours to make a car. Not only this, with range of 11 models in 50 variants, Maruti Suzuki fits every car-buyer's budget and any dream.
