Indian Motor Solutions

Godrej Motor Solutions is aiming for Rs. 1000 crore in revenue by FY28. It has set itself an equally ambitious target for export revenue of 20 per cent. The Godrej Enterprise company is positioning itself as a force in both the domestic and global electric motor markets. The strategic expansion in motor manufacturing comes at a time when the Indian government is focused on reducing import dependency in critical components, and global OEMs are looking for reliable partners beyond China.

To power this growth, Godrej has earmarked Rs. 40 crore to invest in motor manufacturing infrastructure, product innovation, and sustainable practices over the next three years. The investments are being channelled into the company's flagship 36-acre manufacturing campus in Shindewadi, Pune, home to the group's Motor Solutions business. The facility is undergoing rapid expansion to support upcoming product lines for EVs, automation, and precision engineering segments.

Capability Building

The Indian market is witnessing a shift in demand towards high-performance, energy-efficient motors used in e-mobility, HVAC, pumps, and actuators. As OEMs build next-generation electric vehicles and machinery, the need for compact, lightweight, and magnet-free motors is on the rise, as per Xercsis Marker, Executive Vice President and Head of the Motor Solutions Business at Godrej Enterprises Group. “The goal is not just scale, it is sustainable, technologically-sound growth,” Marker stated. “Hinting at going beyond rare earth metals at a time when China has restricted its exports, he pointed to the continued investment in technology and capacity to serve the identified growth sectors. The company is also advancing innovations in motor design, which in turn will aid the lower dependence on rare-earth materials.”
