thebalanced.newsHyundai Marks 30 Years in India with Growth Plans and Regulatory Challenges
Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) marked 30 years in India since its incorporation on May 6, 1996. The company has sold 13.5 million vehicles domestically and internationally, becoming the country's largest passenger vehicle exporter. HMIL has invested Rs 40,700 crore so far and plans an additional Rs 45,000 crore investment by FY30 to expand manufacturing, electrification, and launch 26 new products. However, Hyundai has faced regulatory penalties for anti-competitive practices related to spare parts and dealer discount controls, and its market position declined from second to fourth by FY26 amid competition.
