After putting its labour unrest to rest last month, the company is now looking to clear its huge order backlog by March-April next year. The company expects to make around 18,000-20,000 Swift units a month as soon as the second line at Manesar becomes fully operational by January. It should take four-five months to clear the backlog.
When the new second line is fully operational, Maruti will be able to make around 2,100 units a day at Manesar (up from about 1,400 units right now). At present, the first line makes up to 1,200 units across two shifts, while the second line (running on trial) is making about 200 units.
The carmaker may also look to shift back Swift production from Gurgaon to Manesar, which had been divided because of high demand, following the labour trouble and production disruption since June this year. Earlier, Swift was only made at Manesar.
