The amalgamation is designed to bring significant business benefits to Maruti Suzuki. 

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Principal Bench in New Delhi, has approved the first motion application for the amalgamation of Suzuki Motor Gujarat Private Limited (SMG) with Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL). In a notable move, the tribunal dispensed with the requirement for convening meetings of equity shareholders, secured creditors, and unsecured creditors of both companies to approve the scheme.

This procedural waiver signals a smooth transition process, largely facilitated by the fact that SMG is a wholly owned subsidiary of MSIL. The appointed date for the merger has been fixed as April 1, 2025, aligning with the beginning of the new financial year.

The amalgamation is designed to bring significant business benefits to Maruti Suzuki. The company expects the merger to enhance operational synergies, reduce administrative costs, and streamline internal decision-making. Additionally, by consolidating operations, MSIL aims to unlock long-term shareholder value and ensure a more agile and cohesive management of resources and production capacity.

Suzuki Motor Gujarat was initially established as a contract manufacturing arm, wholly owned by Suzuki Motor Corporation (SMC), Japan. It primarily supplied vehicles to Maruti Suzuki. In a strategic shift, MSIL had announced in 2023 that it would acquire SMG from its Japanese parent, thus centralising all manufacturing under one roof. The current merger is a natural extension of that acquisition, as the company moves to unify its legal and operational framework.

Importantly, the company has assured that the scheme will not affect the rights of any creditors. This consideration helps maintain stakeholder confidence, particularly among lenders and investors, as the company undertakes this significant internal realignment. Maruti Suzuki is now expected to move ahead with subsequent legal and procedural steps to finalise the merger.
