Metalman Auto eyes new opportunity in contract manufacturing for EVs

Auto Expo 2023

Nishant Jairath, Director, Metalman Auto (P) Ltd., shares about how the company’s new focus areas – EV assembly and digitization – are expected to drive its future growth

Overall theme for AUTO EXPO 2023

As we see a lot of new automotive players, especially in the EV segment, we are pitching ourselves as contract manufacturers for entire vehicle assembly. We have just received an LOI from a reputed EV OEM to assemble the complete vehicle for them in India. We believe in the future, businesses or rather factories will evolve to become platforms rather a just manufacturing lines.

Products & solutions to be showcased

We will showcase how Metalman is adapting digitization to reduce its overall costs of operations. We will showcase LIVE CCTV of our plants and Metalman in Metaverse.

Key focus areas

We want to maintain a neutral stance at this point in time for any particular technology. However, we want to focus on a strategy that opens avenues for us to grow, irrespective of technology.

Expectations from the show

Last time we saw less traffic due to the onsetting of covid; however, this year, we expect more footfall and, more importantly, much more impactful dialogues with new entrants in the automotive market.
