Uno Minda Expands EV Footprint with Second 4W EV Powertrain Plant in Maharashtra
Uno Minda will invest ₹550 Crore to establish a second EV powertrain plant in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, through its subsidiary UMAIPL. The facility will produce Electric Drive Units (EDU) and Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) systems for four-wheeler passenger vehicles. The plant is expected to be commissioned by Q2 FY28.
The establishment of a new, large-scale manufacturing facility for EV powertrain components, backed by new orders and a substantial investment, is expected to have a significant impact on Uno Minda's future revenue streams and market position in the growing EV sector.
The announcement details a significant investment in a new manufacturing facility for EV powertrain components, indicating expansion and a focus on future growth areas, which is a positive development for the company.
Uno Minda Limited has announced that its Board of Directors has approved the establishment of a new greenfield manufacturing facility in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, through its subsidiary Uno Minda Auto Innovations Private Limited (UMAIPL).
This state-of-the-art facility will focus on high-voltage electric powertrain products for four-wheeler passenger vehicles, including the assembly and manufacturing of Electric Drive Units (EDU) and Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) systems. The expansion is driven by significant new orders for EDU and DHT systems from a key anchor customer.
The project involves a total estimated investment of ₹550 Crore, which will be funded through a combination of debt and equity. Capital expenditure will be spread over the next two years, with the facility expected to be commissioned by the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2028 (Q2 FY28).
This marks UMAIPL's second EV powertrain plant announcement in quick succession, following the ongoing setup of its facility in Khed City, Pune, which is scheduled to begin operations in the second half of FY27 (H2 FY27).
Mr. Ravi Mehra, Managing Director, Uno Minda Limited, stated, "The Indian automotive landscape is undergoing a structural shift toward sustainable mobility, and Uno Minda is at the forefront of this transition. By establishing our second dedicated EV powertrain plant in Maharashtra, we are not only expanding our capacity but also advancing our product offerings with Electric Drive Unit and DHT. Our commitment remains firm: to lead the localization of high-voltage powertrain technologies in India, ensuring that our partners have access to global-standard innovation right at their doorstep."
