The company’s manufacturing facilities are situated in Hosur, Tamil Nadu, Mysore, Karnataka, and Nalagarh, Himachal Pradesh. It also operates a manufacturing facility in Karawang, Indonesia.

 

 

In 1979, the TVS Group company Sundaram-Clayton Ltd established a moped division in Hosur for the production of TVS 50 mopeds. In 1982, the business got into a technological know-how and assistance partnership with Suzuki Motor Co Ltd of Japan. In 1985, they established Lakshmi Auto Components Pvt Ltd to produce crucial engines and transmission components. In 1986, the company purchased the assets of Sundaram Clayton Ltd.’s moped division. In addition, the company changed its name from Indo Suzuki Motorcycles Ltd to TVS Suzuki Ltd. In 1992, they introduced two types of motorcycles, Samurai and Shogun, and in 1993, they introduced TVS Scooty.

 

During the 1999-2000 fiscal year, TVS Suzuki Ltd merged with Sundaram Auto Engineers Ltd, a 1992-founded unlisted group firm. In accordance with the plan, as of April 22, 1999, Sundaram Auto Engineers (India) Ltd acquired all of the assets and liabilities of the former TVS Suzuki Ltd, as well as all obligations and contingent liabilities. Eventually, this amalgamated business was renamed TVS Suzuki Ltd. On September 27, 2001, the TVS group and Suzuki Motor Corporation ended their 15-year joint partnership. Anusha Investments Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sundaram-Clayton Ltd, paid Rs 9 crore to buy the shares held by the Suzuki Motor Corporation. As of November 15, 2001, the company became a subsidiary of Sundaram-Clayton Ltd. Since Suzuki Motor Corporation is no longer a shareholder in the firm, the corporation is unable to use the word “Suzuki” as part of its name; hence, the company’s name has been changed to TVS Motor Company Ltd. During 2002-2003, the sleek and attractive TVS Scooty Pep and the improved Fiero were introduced to the market.

With effect from April 2, 2003, the remaining business of Lakshmi Auto Components Ltd, the engine components section, and their assets in other corporations were transferred to the company.
