New Delhi: Maruti Suzuki India on Tuesday resumed production at its two manufacturing facilities in Haryana after two days of suspension due to the Jat reservation agitation in the state. “The company has resumed production of vehicles at its facilities in Gurgaon and Manesar starting Tuesday second half.
The supply of components has started gradually,” Maruti Suzuki India said in a statement. Shares of the company declined nearly one per cent to close at Rs 3,492.50 on the BSE on Tuesday.
The company had to suspend operations at its facilities from Saturday, February 20 (second half) as supply of certain components was disrupted due to the Jat agitation in Haryana. The two plants are estimated to roll out some 5,000 units of vehicles a day.
“While our research team’s initial estimates of loss to the state’s economy and public private property is between Rs 18,000-Rs 20,000 crore, the damage could even rise, given an unprecedented level of damage done to major cities,” said Assocham.
