Suzuki asks India suppliers to shorten production week in push for quality, sources say

Suzuki Motor has asked its Indian suppliers to halt production one day a week for machine maintenance, reportedly for the first time. It wants suppliers to move to a model of 20 hours a day, six days a week by September 2027. The move aims to prevent accidents, stoppages and quality problems as Maruti Suzuki plans to raise output from about 2.4 million to 4 million cars by 2030.
