The Mahindra Group – one of India’s leading industrial enterprises – is poised to help American companies enhance their international footprint and expand by leveraging the advantages of India as a manufacturing hub, the company on Monday announced through an exchange filing.
Setting manufacturing Base in India
The Mahindra Group will support interested companies in setting up their manufacturing base in India in a range of ways, including (i) through an integrated approach to manufacturing (infrastructure, supply chain, technology/automation, and others); (ii) a modular plug-and-play suite of offerings; (iii) experience sharing on regulations and compliance; and (iv) environmental, social and governance (ESG) focus.
With India as the fulcrum for its manufacturing operations, the Mahindra Group offers self-sufficient industrial parks at strategic locations and expertise to guide companies through the approval processes. The Group also offers cost-effective solutions for manufacturing and logistics needs, amongst others.
Equity and debt financing solution
Complementing these efforts, International Finance Corporation (IFC) – the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets – will offer bespoke equity and debt financing solutions for these companies. IFC has deep expertise in the manufacturing sector globally and offers valuable guidance leveraging its presence in India for local context and insights gained over six decades in the country.
“Mahindra Group is delighted to announce a dedicated platform in the United States – a decisive step aimed at enhancing global manufacturing and supply chain solutions for American companies. With this bold move, we will empower American businesses to unlock the immense potential of manufacturing in India.
