COMPANY PROFILE
GKN Driveline India LTD traces its origin back to 1986 when Invel Transmissions Ltd, as it
was then known, was established Three !ears later the com"an! became the #irst in India to
man$#act$re side sha#ts #or #ront wheel drive vehicles when it was selected sole %&' s$""lier
#or (ar$ti )$*$ki + at that time the onl! #ront wheel drive car man$#act$rer o# the co$ntr!
Later known as GKN Drive sha#ts India- Ltd, the o"eration became a owned s$bsidiar! o#
GKN Driveline in .//. and is toda! the side sha#t market leader in India with an installed
ca"acit! to man$#act$re over one million $nits hal# a million vehicle sets- a !ear )ales in
.//0 stood at more than .0 million "o$nd
The com"an!s growth in the 199/s was strongl! linked with its s$""l! o# side sha#ts #or the
Government o# Indias 2oint vent$re with 'a"anese car maker )$*$ki (otor %or"oration to
make #ront wheel drive cars 3eginning with the )$*$ki (ar$ti 8//cc model in 1989,
"rod$ction ra"idl! e4"anded and GKN c$rrentl! s$""lies all #ront wheel drive cars #or thecom"an! 8//cc, 5en, agon7 G!"s!, steem, 3aleno and )wi#t-
D$ring the late 9/s GKN Driveline India began s$""l!ing "rod$ct #or other ma2or c$stomers
In 1996 it was selected sole s$""lier to :iat ;no, )iena and !$ndai (otors )antro , ?ccent, )onata and Get*- and began working with Tata (otors
