With a commitment to back the government of India's massive push to ramp up production of ventilators amid the COVID-19 outbreak, Indian automobile majors are geared up to modify their vehicle assembly lines.
The government has chalked out a plan to increase manufacturing capacity from the current 5,500-5,750 ventilators per month to 50,000 units per month by the end of May. Leading domestic ventilator manufacturers have already doubled their production capacity within a month's time.
India has the world's fourth-largest auto industry, after China, the U.S. and Japan, and all market leaders -- Maruti, Mahindra and Mahindra, Tata Motors, Kalyani Group and the Indian arm of Korean car manufacturer Hyundai India, have joined the race.
