Maruti Udyog Limitted (till 2007), the Company was responsible for the automobile revolution in
India. Maruti started production in India in 1983 with its first car – The Maruti 800. The Company
spread its wings throughout the country and is one of the few publicly listed automotive companies in
our country. Originally, 74% of the Company was owned by the Indian Government, and 26% by

Maruti is one of the companies in India which has unparalleled service network. To ensure
the vehicles sold by them are serviced properly Maruti has 2628 listed authorised service
stations and 30 express service stations on 30 highways across India.
Service is major revenue generator of the company. Most of the service stations are managed
on franchise basis, where Maruti trains the local staff. Other automobile companies have not
been able to match this benchmark set by Maruti. The express service stations help many
stranded vehicles on the highways by sending across their repair man to the vehicle.
3. MARUTI INSURANCE
It is launched in2002, providing vehicle insurance to customers with the help of the National
Insurance Company, Bajaj Allianz, New India Assurance and Royal Sundaram. The service
was set up the company with the inception of two subsidiaries. Maruti Insurance Distributors
Services Pvt. Ltd. And Maruti Insurance Brokers Pvt. Ltd.
4. MARUTI FINANCE
To promote bottom line growth, Maruti launched Maruti Finance in January 2002. Prior
to the start of this service Maruti had started two joit ventures Citicorp Maruti and Maruti
Countrywide with Citicorp and GE Countrywide respectively to assist its client in securing
loan. Maruti tied up with ABN Amro Bank, HDFC Bank, ICICI Limitted, Kotak Mahindra,
Standard Chartered Bank, and Sundaram to start this venture including its strategic partners in
car finance. Again the company entered into a strategic partnership with SBI in March 2003.
Since March 2003, Maruti has sold over 12000 vehicles through SBI Maruti Finance. SBI-
Maruti finance is currently available in 166 cities across India. Maruti finance helps
customers realize their dream of owning a car, with ideal finance deals suited for the
customers, right at the dealership. Starting from choosing the right financier, until the
completion of loan formalities, they are there for their customers at every step of the auto
finance process.
There’s a wide range of over 1600 accessories, to help customers fall in love with their
Maruti Suzuki car once again. Each Maruti Genuine accessories product combines quality,
durability, aesthetics and design to complement your car. Moreover, gives you many years of
driving pleasure and the pride of owning a Maruti Suzuki car. Many of the auto component
companies other than Maruti Ltd. started to offer components and accessories that were
compatible. This caused a serious threat and loss of revenue to Maruti. Maruti started a new
initiative under the brand name Maruti Genuine Accessories like alloy wheels, body cover,
carpets, door visitors, fog lamps, stereo systems, seat covers and other car care products.
These products are sold through dealer outlets and authorised service stations throughout
India.
Maruti True Value is India’s largest certified, used car dealer network, with around
763 outlets spread across 550 cities. Maruti True Value System and process ensures that
transactions in used cars are fair and transparent. Every vehicle bought under Maruti True
Value is inspected and certified by Maruti Suzuki engineers. True Value category cars are
refurbished in state of art workshops using Maruti Genuine Parts and by skilled technicians.
These cars are then sold through Maruti True Value outlets with one-year warranty and three
free services.
N2N is the short form of End To End Fleet Management and provides fleet
management solution to corporates. Their impressive lists of clients who have signed up of

As part of its corporate social responsibility Maruti Udyog launched the Maruti
Driving School in Delhi. Later the services were extended to other cities of India as well.
These schools are modelled on international standards, where learners go through classroom
and practical sessions. Many international practices like road behaviour and attitudes are also
taught in these schools. Before driving actual vehicles participants are trained on simulators.
