Tata is the third largest vehicle producer in India, accounting for 20% of the 2.4 million vehicles produced last year in India.

Autoliv started operations in India in 1991 through a joint venture, which became wholly owned in 2007. Last year, Autoliv’s sales in India rose by 60% to more than U.S. $75 million as Autoliv strengthened its market-leading position in the country. In India, Autoliv produces seatbelts and airbags and is in the process of opening one plant for steering wheels and another plant for seatbelt webbing. All of Autoliv’s operations in India are wholly owned. Indian vehicle production last year grew by 17% and is this year expected to grow by 25%.
