On tracks: How Maruti Suzuki is shifting to railways for its car dispatches

Maruti Suzuki is in focus in an infrastructure development.

19 Sept 2026 · Business Today Mkts

Maruti Suzuki is the only passenger vehicle OEM in India to have in-plant railway sidings at its manufacturing facilities.

Against that, the stock is -1.4% on the day at ₹11,468.00, and has returned -21.5% over three months. It sits 34% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The auto sector has moved -6.1% over the same period, so Maruti Suzuki is running 15.4 points behind its peers.

For Maruti Suzuki, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the auto peer set alongside it.

  • Infra spending is both an economic-cycle signal and a direct order pipeline for capital-goods names.
  • The company directly in focus is MARUTI.
  • Sector exposure: Auto.
