Respected Sir/s,

1st automobile in-plant railway siding at Maruti Suzuki’s plant in Gujarat.....

The cars from the Hansalpur manufacturing facility in Gujarat will be sent to 
15 different cities through the Indian railway network.
India’s first automobile in-plant railway siding --- built at Hansalpur unit of 
 MARUTI SUZKI in Gujarat --- will help the automobile manufacturer transport 
three lakh “finished car dispatches” by train, thereby helping the company 
“eliminate 50,000 truck-trips every year”.              The in-plant railway 
siding built by Maruti at the cost of ₹105 crore is linked to the 
Katosan-Becharaji-Ranauj route which has been converted to Broad Gauge at cost 
of ₹976 crore by Bahucharaji Rail Corporation Ltd which is a joint venture 
between MSIL, G-Ride and GIDC. The siding is the one of the projects 
inaugurated by PM Narendra Modi during his visit to Gujarat on Tuesday 12th 
March 2024. 


“Logistics can be a good way of reducing carbon. By eliminating 50,000 truck 
trips per annum, we will be saving 35 million litres of fossil fuel and 
reducing carbon emissions by 1650 metric tonnes,” said Rahul Bharti, Executive 
Officer, Corporate Affairs, MSIL.

The cars from the Hansalpur manufacturing facility in Gujarat will be sent to 
15 different cities through the Indian railway network. A portion of the car 
produced in this facility will also travel on the same rail network to Mundra 
and Pipavav ports for exports. “Maruti is exporting 42 per cent of all cars 
produced in India,” he said.

             “Our penetration of car dispatch is highest among all car 
manufacturers in the country. Till now we have dispatched about 18 lakh cars by 
railways and this year till February, we have transported 4.09 lakh cars,” 
Bharti added.  
Maruti Suzuki is also in the process of building a similar railway siding at 
its plant in Haryana. “Going forward, we will be able to save about 20 per cent 
time in dispatches while using trains,” he said, adding that transporting by 
rail is marginally cheaper than using roadways.
