Minda Corporation is targeting more than doubling its exports to ₹1,500 crore over the next four years, compared with around ₹600 crore currently, as the auto-component manufacturer expands its presence in electric vehicles (EVs), automotive electronics and higher-value components.

EVs and Electronics to Drive Global Expansion

Exports currently account for around 8–9% of Minda Corporation’s revenue, with the company looking to strengthen its international business through product diversification, localisation and increased manufacturing capacity.

Key growth areas include:

  • EV components and high-voltage connections
  • Automotive electronics and instrument clusters
  • Wiring harnesses
  • Smart-key systems
  • Wireless chargers
  • Body control modules

The company is also increasing its focus on the four-wheeler segment. Two- and three-wheelers currently contribute around 42–43% of revenue, while four-wheelers account for approximately 20%.

EV Business Gains Momentum

EV-related products contributed nearly 14% of group revenue in Q1, highlighting the growing importance of electrification to Minda’s portfolio. Associate company Flash Electronics generates around 30% of its revenue from EV-related products.

Minda is also expanding its capabilities through greenfield and brownfield facilities covering vehicle access, wiring harnesses, instrument clusters, EV components, die-casting and electronics.

Building a Global Auto-Component Footprint

The company is simultaneously pursuing deeper localisation and backward integration to improve competitiveness and support international growth.

Minda’s export ambitions reflect the broader transformation of India’s auto-component industry, with suppliers increasingly moving towards EV systems, electronics and technology-intensive products. As global automakers diversify their supply chains, Indian component manufacturers could play a larger role in the international EV ecosystem.
