Mahindra Group on Friday announced plans to establish its largest integrated manufacturing facility for automobiles and tractors in Nagpur. The state-of-the-art facility will be developed on 1,500 acre land in Nagpur and the proposed plant will start production by 2028. Further, the Nagpur facility will be complemented by a 150-acre supplier park in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.

 

The company committed a comprehensive investment of Rs 15,000 crore over a 10-year period in Maharashtra and will acquire over 2,000 acres across three locations, including Nagpur, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar and Nashik, to further strengthen its manufacturing footprint. Rajesh Jejurikar, Executive Director & CEO, Auto and Farm Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., revealed this during the inaugural session of the three-day Advantage Vidarbha 2026. Once fully operational, the facility will have an annual production capacity of over 5 lakh vehicles and 1 lakh tractors, making it Mahindra’s largest integrated manufacturing footprint in the country.

 

he Vidarbha region offers strong strategic advantages, including excellent road connectivity via the Samruddhi Expressway, robust rail links, easy access to key domestic and export markets, and a rapidly evolving industrial ecosystem. The supplier park at Sambhajinagar will strengthen the manufacturing value chain through closer partner collaboration, improved logistics efficiency, and enhanced localisation. It will supply components to the new Nagpur facility as well as Mahindra’s existing ones at Chakan and Nashik. The automotive facility will support Mahindra Auto’s next-generation platforms and will be capable of manufacturing vehicles across multiple powertrains - ICE, EV and future technologies - for both domestic and global markets. Featuring advanced automation and digital manufacturing systems, the plant will reflect Mahindra’s focus on innovation, quality and sustainability.

 

The tractor manufacturing unit will further reinforce Mahindra’s leadership in the farm equipment sector, catering to domestic demand and key export markets. In addition, Mahindra will acquire land in the Igatpuri-Nashik region to expand current product and engine capacities, as well as to support the growth of its Advanced Technology business. Devendra Fadnavis, Chief Minister of Maharashtra, said, “Mahindra’s decision to establish its largest integrated auto and tractor manufacturing facility in Maharashtra is a strong endorsement of the State’s robust industrial ecosystem and progressive policy framework. This landmark investment will generate significant employment, accelerate development in Vidarbha and surrounding areas, and further reinforce Maharashtra’s position as a leading manufacturing hub in India.”
