NEW DELHI: Maruti Suzuki India, the country's largest automaker, said on Monday that its production volume might be affected in the current budget as the supply situation for electronic components remains unpredictable. The top automaker said the shortage of electronic components also had some impact on auto production in the past fiscal year.
“As the supply situation for electronic components remains unpredictable, it may also have some impact on production volume in FY2023-24,” Maruti Suzuki India said in a regulatory filing.
The automaker produced standard units for 19.22 lakhs in 2022-23. However, it failed to achieve its target of bringing the total production to 20 lakh units in the last financial year.
