Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday hailed a recent major automobile deal with Indonesia and noted that the vehicles will be manufactured at the company’s Nashik plant, adding to the growth and employment opportunities in the district.
The deal was finalised between Indonesia and Mahindra & Mahindra.
"CM Fadnavis congratulated Mahindra & Mahindra for securing its largest-ever export order to supply 35,000 Scorpio Pik-Up vehicles to Indonesia," officials said, according to the ANI.
CM Fadnavis said he was proud that the milestone export deal is “Made in Nashik”, adding that it reinforces Maharashtra’s position as India’s leading manufacturing hub and aligns with the Centre’s Make in India initiative.
Biggest export order
The Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) announced that it has received its biggest export order to date, involving the supply of 35,000 light commercial vehicles to Indonesia in 2026. The order exceeds the company’s total export volumes recorded in the financial year 2024–25 and marks a major achievement for its global operations, the ANI reported.
In a statement, the company said it will deliver the vehicles to Agrinas Pangan Nusantara, an Indonesian entity, as part of the country’s Koperasi Desa/Kelurahan Merah Putih (KDKMP) Project. The large-scale government-backed initiative aims to strengthen cooperatives and support Indonesia’s national food security transformation, the news agency reported.
Manufacturing in Nashik
All vehicles under this export order will be manufactured at Mahindra’s Nashik facility.
The Scorpio Pik-Up vehicles will be deployed for a state-owned programme focused on cooperatives across Indonesia. Mahindra said the vehicles will help improve rural logistics by enabling efficient transportation of agricultural produce from farms to markets.
Under the partnership, Mahindra will work closely with Agrinas Pangan Nusantara to equip local cooperatives, known as Koperasi, with durable and reliable vehicles. The collaboration aims to ensure a smooth and efficient supply chain, helping fresh produce move directly from farmers to consumers.
The initiative is expected to strengthen village-level commerce, improve first-mile aggregation of farm produce, and support intra-village logistics. Mahindra added that the customised Scorpio Pik-Up vehicles are designed to handle rough rural terrain and narrow farm tracks, making them suitable for cooperative operations, as per the ANI.
