The new facility will focus on the production of automobiles and tractors, contributing significantly to the company’s long-term expansion strategy. Production at the new site is expected to commence in 2028.
Investment of ₹15,000 crore over the next decade
The group plans to invest ₹15,000 crore over the next ten years in establishing and developing the new manufacturing unit. This investment is part of Mahindra’s broader commitment to enhance its industrial capabilities and strengthen its manufacturing footprint in India.

The company is aligning this investment with its long-term vision to increase production capacity and support innovation in the automotive and agricultural machinery sectors.
Employment and local economic growth expected
The establishment of the manufacturing plant is projected to generate employment opportunities in the region, both directly and indirectly. In addition to creating jobs within the plant, the project is likely to support ancillary industries and local suppliers, positively impacting the surrounding economy.
Nagpur selected for strategic and logistical advantages
Nagpur has been chosen as the location for the facility due to its central geographical position in India, good connectivity, and available infrastructure. The city’s proximity to key markets and logistics networks makes it an ideal site for large-scale industrial investment.
