Uno Minda Enters into 4W Passenger Vehicle Seating Systems; Announces Greenfield Plant in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar with ₹320 Crore Investment
Gurugram – July 08, 2026: Uno Minda Limited, a global technology leader in automotive components and systems manufacturing, today announced a landmark strategic expansion into the Four-Wheeler (4W) Passenger Vehicle Seating Systems segment – one of the highest-value product categories in the automotive supply chain. To support this new product line, the company’s Board of Directors has approved the setting up of a state-of-the-art greenfield manufacturing facility in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (formerly Aurangabad), Maharashtra, with a proposed capital expenditure of approximately ₹320 crore. The facility is expected to commence operations by Q4FY28. The project will be executed under Uno Minda Tachi-S Seating Private Limited, a Joint Venture (JV) with TACHI-S Company Limited, Japan, a leading global automotive seating manufacturer.
Strategic Evolution into Complete 4W Passenger Vehicle Seating Systems: Uno Minda originally entered into joint venture with TACHI-S in September 2022 to manufacture and market seat recliners for passenger vehicles in first phase. That first phase established a strong foundation — and now the company is ready to play in a significantly larger arena. This expansion marks Uno Minda’s definitive entry into complete 4W Passenger Vehicle Seating systems. It is a decisive move up the automotive value chain, translating into meaningfully higher revenue per vehicle.
In a strong early validation of this strategy, the JV has already secured an anchor customer order from a leading OEM — demonstrating that Uno Minda’s engineering capabilities and manufacturing readiness meet the exacting standards of India’s top automakers.
Mr. Ravi Mehra, Managing Director, Uno Minda Limited, said: “This is one of the most exciting chapters in Uno Minda’s growth story. Entering the complete 4W Passenger Vehicle Seating Systems segment isn’t just a product expansion — it’s a strategic leap that substantially increases our per-vehicle value potential and deepens our footprint in a segment that is central to the premium vehicle experience.
This greenfield facility reflects our unwavering commitment to advanced domestic manufacturing and delivering the kind of high-performance seating comfort that India’s rapidly evolving automotive market demands.”
