Mahindra to invest ₹15,000 cr in Maharashtra plant

Nagpur hub to produce over 5 lakh vehicles and 1 lakh tractors annually, boosting jobs and manufacturing by 2028

Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) is set to invest ₹15,000 crore to establish India’s largest integrated automobile and tractor manufacturing facility in Nagpur, Maharashtra. The announcement came at the Advantage Vidarbha investment summit, underlining the region’s growing importance as a hub for industrial development.

The new facility will span 1,500 acres, complemented by a 150‑acre supplier park in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad). The park will supply parts to the Nagpur plant and other Mahindra factories in Chakan and Nashik, boosting local supply chains and production efficiency.

Production at the Nagpur plant is expected to begin in 2028. Once operational, it will have the capacity to manufacture more than 5 lakh vehicles and 1 lakh tractors every year, making it the largest such integrated plant in the country.

The plant will be equipped to handle internal combustion engines, electric vehicles, and future mobility technologies, supporting Mahindra’s NU_IQ platform and other next-generation vehicle architectures.

In addition, Mahindra is acquiring over 2,000 acres across three locations in Maharashtra, including land in the Igatpuri-Nashik region, to expand engine production and other advanced manufacturing capabilities.

Officials highlight that the Nagpur location offers strong logistical advantages, with access to the Samruddhi Expressway and major rail links, facilitating the movement of vehicles and components across India and overseas markets.

The project is expected to generate substantial employment opportunities and contribute to the economic development of Vidarbha and nearby areas. Maharashtra’s government has welcomed the investment, describing it as a significant boost to the state’s industrial ecosystem.

This ₹15,000 crore investment is a major step in Mahindra’s long-term manufacturing strategy, reinforcing its commitment to India’s “Make in India for the World” initiative while positioning the company for growth in both domestic and international markets.
