In a major boost to India’s electric mobility ecosystem, Denso Corporation, a global leader in automotive components, has announced an investment of ₹250 crore to set up a new electric vehicle (EV) component manufacturing plant in Uttar Pradesh. The move is part of the company’s strategy to expand its manufacturing footprint in India, which is fast emerging as a key EV market in Asia.
The new plant will focus on the production of critical components for electric vehicles, catering to both domestic automakers and export markets. Denso’s investment aims to enhance local sourcing, reduce dependency on imports, and strengthen India’s EV supply chain with advanced, high-quality components.
The announcement was welcomed by the Uttar Pradesh government, which emphasised the state’s commitment to becoming a leading manufacturing hub for EVs and associated technologies. With a favourable industrial policy, robust infrastructure, and skilled workforce, UP is positioning itself as a preferred destination for global and domestic investors in the EV space.
This development is also aligned with the central government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative and the broader push to accelerate EV adoption across the country. The new facility is expected to generate employment and provide a significant impetus to the local economy.
Construction of the plant is expected to commence later this year, with commercial operations likely to begin in 2026. Denso’s expansion reinforces the growing investor confidence in India’s green mobility transition and highlights the country’s rising significance in the global EV manufacturing landscape.
