Other major OEM clients include VE Commercial Vehicles, Mahindra & Mahindra, Force Motors, Isuzu Motors, SML Isuzu, Toyota and UD Trucks.

Adding to the existing product mix, new products, the company according to Randeep Singh Jauhar, Vice Chairman & Executive Director, Jamna Auto Industries is confident of significantly adding to the perceived USPs of BSVI vehicles over their BSIV counterparts. These include claims of a ride quality akin to passenger cars, redesigned cabins for greater driver comfort, computerised engine and better mileage to name a few. Besides contributing to the all-important estimate of up to 5x reduction in emissions that will drastically curb vehicular pollution. Of the product additions to its BSVI portfolio that include a lift-axle, stabiliser bar, pneumatic suspension, trailer suspension and allied products like U bolts, z springs, opined Jauhar, the company is confident of the modern BSVI compliant springs accounting for strong growth. Notably, leaf springs in the recent past accounted for approximately 91 per cent of the sales with the rest from lift axles and pneumatic suspensions.
