Maruti Suzuki India Limited is a publicly listed Indian subsidiary of Japanese automaker Suzuki Motor Corporation. It is the largest automobile manufacturer in India, specialising in small cars.

The company was established by the Government of India as Maruti Udyog Limited in February 1981 as a joint venture with Suzuki, that became the first Japanese automaker to invest in India. Maruti opened its first production facility in Gurugram, Haryana, in 1982.[8] Initially, Maruti was majority owned by the Indian government, with Suzuki only taking a 26% stake during its establishment in 1982. The Indian government gradually reduced its stake, partially departed the business in 2003 by making it a public company and then sold all of its remaining shares to Suzuki Motor Corporation in 2007.[2][9][10]

Maruti Suzuki emerged as the largest Suzuki subsidiary in terms of production volume and sales. As of September 2022, the company had a leading market share of 42% in the Indian passenger car market.[11]
