Uno Minda has received Board of Directors’ approval to establish state-of-the-art greenfield manufacturing facility in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (formerly Aurangabad), Maharashtra. This facility, established through its subsidiary Uno Minda Auto Innovations (UMAIPL), will focus on high-voltage electric powertrain products for four-wheeler passenger vehicles.
The new plant will assemble and manufacture advanced systems including Electric Drive Units (EDU) and Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) systems. This strategic expansion is backed by significant new orders for EDU and DHT systems from a key anchor customer. The project involves a total estimated investment of around Rs 550 crore, to be funded through a mix of debt and equity. Capital expenditure will be phased over the next two years, with the facility expected to be commissioned by Q2FY28.
This is the second EV powertrain plant announced by UMAIPL in quick succession, following the ongoing setup of its facility in Khed City, Pune, which is slated to begin operations in H2FY27.
Uno Minda is engaged in the business of manufacturing of auto components including auto electrical parts and its accessories and caters to both domestic and international markets.
