facility in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, with a proposed capital expenditure of

INR3.2bn. It expects to commence operations by 4QFY28E with a terminal capacity of

Our view: PV seating systems expands TAM further for Uno Minda and is a long

term positive

We note that Uno Minda currently caters to only 2W/CV segment seating, which

contributed ~7% to its FY26 revenues. Entry into the PV segment, which was a

whitespace for Uno Minda, expands content per vehicle significantly (~INR20k-70k per

vehicle) and is a key positive, in our view.
