With this order of Electric cars for the Indian government, Tata Motors has risen to different heights and is becoming a tough competition for all others in Industry including all the top automobile companies of the Country. Despite the fact, the leading Maruti Suzuki is not at all concerned with the ongoing development of electric cars and continues to produce petrol, diesel and CNG vehicles as usual.

In the recent events, it was officially confirmed by the administration of the Ministry of Power, Government of India that it will procure the 10,000 electric vehicles worth Rs. 1,120 crore from the Tata Motors. Where every other automobile company in India is preparing itself to compete with the new electric cars, there Maruti Suzuki is playing its calm card.
