Marquardt Inaugurates New Mechatronics Plant in Talegaon.

Mechatronics specialist Marquardt has officially inaugurated its new production plant in Talegaon, near Pune, as part of its expansion in India. The new facility replaces the company’s previous production site in Mumbai, significantly increasing its manufacturing capacity and strengthening its market competitiveness.

With an investment of over ₹180 crore in infrastructure, machinery, and equipment, the state-of-the-art plant will primarily produce mechatronic system solutions for the Indian automotive industry.

Marquardt Group CEO Björn Twiehaus emphasized India’s role as a key growth market, stating, “We work closely with leading vehicle manufacturers here and leverage the expertise of our Indian team. The opening of the Talegaon plant marks another milestone in our success story, reinforcing our position as a leading supplier of mechatronic systems for the future of mobility.”

Vishal Narvekar, General Manager of Marquardt India, highlighted the facility’s role in supporting the ‘Make in India’ initiative, adding that it will enhance local production, drive innovation, and generate new employment opportunities.

The Talegaon plant features advanced assembly lines, in-house electronics production, and logistics capabilities, enabling Marquardt to supply drive authorization systems, gear selector switches, and battery management systems for electric vehicles (EVs). The investment is expected to reduce supply chain complexities, enhance flexibility, and improve response times.

Over the next five years, Marquardt plans to create around 300 new jobs at the facility, further strengthening its operations in India’s fast-growing automotive sector.
