The fourth phase of the nationwide lockdown has begun with some positive news for the beleaguered Indian Automobile sector. After resuming operations at its Manesar facility in Haryana a few days ago, the country's largest car maker Maruti Suzuki has also restarted operations at its Gurugram facility, also located in Haryana from today. Manufacturing was stopped at both the plants on March 22, 2020 the same week when the nationwide lockdown was enforced owing to the Coronavirus pandemic. Manufacturing in Gurugram has now begun after 55 days.
The very popular Vitara Brezza SUV is manufactured at Maruti's Gurugram plant.
In a filing with the Bombay Stock Exchange on Sunday, the company said," You are kindly informed that Maruti Suzuki India Limited would re-start production of vehicles at its Gurgaon plant from the 18th of May 2020.
