Maruti Udyog

From Freepedia

Maruti Udyog Ltd is one of India's leading automobile manufacturers. It is partly owned by the Indian government and partly by Suzuki of Japan. Marutis are sold in India and various other countries (depending upon export orders). Cars similar to Marutis (but not manufactured by Maruti Udyog) are sold by Suzuki in Pakistan and other South Asian countries.

The company annually exports more than 30000 cars and has a extremely large domestic market in India selling over five hundred thousand cars annually. Maruti 800, till recently, was the company's largest selling compact car. More than a million units of this car have been sold worldwide so far. Now, Maruti Alto has overtaken Maruti 800 in net sales.

The extent of Maruti's influence in indian market can be judged by the fact that, in India, the term "Maruti" is sometimes referred to mean car ( usually a compact car ). So, "riding a maruti" can sometimes mean driving a small car which may not be one of MUL's products.
