Maruti Suzuki India Limited has formalised an agreement with Gujarat’s Directorate of Employment and Training to establish Advanced Manufacturing Labs within five Industrial Training Institutes located in Palanpur, Bhavnagar, Surendranagar, Godhra and Dahod. This partnership is structured under the company’s corporate social responsibility framework and directly supports the national Skill India mission.
These specialised labs are engineered to mirror actual shop-floor conditions, offering trainees practical exposure to critical automotive processes including assembly, welding, painting, machining, mechatronics and safety protocols. The overarching goal is to elevate the employability of ITI graduates and cultivate a workforce that is immediately adaptable to the demands of modern manufacturing.
This educational initiative coincides with a massive production scale-up in Gujarat. Maruti Suzuki is preparing to activate a fourth production line at its Hansalpur facility this year, which will boost annual capacity to one million units from the current 750,000. Concurrently, a new manufacturing plant with an additional one-million-unit capacity is under construction in Sanand, positioning the state to eventually host a total annual production volume of two million vehicles.
The company’s commitment to skill development is already extensive, supporting 31 ITIs nationwide in manufacturing trades. The addition of the five Gujarat labs will increase the total count of Advanced Manufacturing Labs to 23 across seven states and union territories. Furthermore, the automaker sustains four Japan-India Institutes for Manufacturing in Gujarat and Haryana, a bilateral initiative designed to generate a robust talent pipeline for the industry.
Rahul Bharti, Senior Executive Officer, Corporate Affairs, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said, “Maruti Suzuki aligns with the Government of India’s flagship Skill India mission to impart the relevant skill training to create livelihood opportunities for the youth. Through Advanced Manufacturing Labs, we are equipping students with experiential learning and confidence in modern equipment, nurturing professionals who can seamlessly integrate into the evolving automotive ecosystem. We have a robust plan to expand manufacturing operations in the State. Each expansion brings with it a new industrial ecosystem, one that demands skilled and future-ready workforce. The Advanced Manufacturing Labs will play a pivotal role in meeting this latent need and ensuring that talent is ready to meet the industry demands.”
Stuti Charan, IAS, Director, DET, Government of Gujarat, said, “Maruti Suzuki, while being the market leader, has consistently demonstrated its commitment to skill development in India. By setting up Advanced Manufacturing Labs in Gujarat’s ITIs, Maruti Suzuki is bridging the gap between classroom learning and industry requirements. This initiative will empower our youth and strengthen Gujarat’s position as a hub for the automotive sector, in line with Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision of Viksit Bharat and Hon’ble Chief Minister of Gujarat Shri Bhupendrabhai Patel’s guidance toward Viksit Gujarat 2047. The momentum and support from Hon’ble Cabinet Minister Shri Kunwarjibhai Mohanbhai Bavaliya, Labour, Skill Development & Employment, Hon’ble State Minister Shri Kantibhai Amrutiya Labour, Skill Development and Hon'ble Secretary Shri Lochan Sahera, Labour, Skill Development are paving the way for future-ready learning skills that match the pace of global development.”

- June 22, 2026
Spiro, an African electric vehicle (EV) and energy infrastructure platform, has closed its latest funding round at USD 270 million, following a USD 55 million investment from Chinese growth-stage fund NewTrails Capital.
The platform currently operates across seven African markets, with 100,000 electric vehicles deployed and 2,500 smart-swap stations in operation. This capital injection will support the expansion of Spiro's battery-swapping network, industrial footprint and EV infrastructure.
Gagan Gupta, Founder of Spiro and Chairman of Equitane, said, "I would like to thank NewTrails Capital for believing in Spiro’s model and supporting our unique tech, energy and innovation journey. Having deployed 100,000 electric vehicles and 2,500 smart-swap stations across seven active markets, Spiro has firmly moved past the proof-of-concept phase. Partnering with NewTrail Capital’s deeply experienced team marks a powerful new chapter for Spiro as we prepare for the next steps of our pan-African and international expansion."
Yufan Zhang, Founding Partner, NewTrails Capital, added, “We believe Spiro is driving a profound “energy revolution” across mobility use cases in Africa. This represents not only a vast and highly imaginative market opportunity, but also the potential to grow into an infrastructure-like business that creates meaningful commercial, social, and environmental value. In our view, Spiro’s core strengths lie in its deeply localized operating capabilities, vertically integrated supply chain, digitally enabled ecosystem, sound unit economics, and strong ability to scale rapidly. More importantly, Spiro has systematically integrated vehicles, batteries, energy replenishment, payments, and service networks into a solution that is truly tailored to the needs of African users, effectively addressing long-standing structural pain points in the local market.”
Spiro’s consortium of investors also includes FEDA, Impact Fund Denmark, Equitane, Nithio and the Africa Go Green Fund.
