About Us

In a span of 20 years, The Sona Group has scripted a remarkable growth story. Twenty years ago with a team of 25 employees, I created a business model which invited a customer to be an equity partner in my company. I established the first company of the Group, Sona Koyo Steering Systems Ltd. (then just Sona Steering Systems Ltd.) in partnership with Maruti Udyog Ltd.

The Group firmly believes in creating strong partnerships. Steady and sustained growth, based on a clear vision has enabled The Sona Group to become a global organization. Today, The Group consists of nine automobile components manufacturing companies and three services companies in the areas of engineering design and mobility. The Sona Group has technical and marketing alliances with domestic and international majors Maruti Suzuki India Ltd (India), Mahindra & Mahindra (India), JTEKT Corporation (Japan), Mando Corporation (Korea), Somic Ishikawa Inc.

(Japan), ZF Lemforder GmbH (Germany), Somic Engineering Inc. (Japan), Mitsubishi Materials Corporation (Japan), Fuji Kiko (Japan), Koyo Electronics (Japan), American Axle & Manufacturing (USA) and Sixt (Germany),. The Group's global footprint spans India, Germany and the USA. It has a strategic investment in Fuji Auto Tech, Europe � which in turn has interests in France, Brazil & Czech Republic. Sona Auto Comp Europe & USA provide sales and services support to the Group�s operations overseas. The Group today employs over 3500 people, and has revenues a little in excess of USD 760 million.

The foundation of The Group is based on three core values: Respect for the Individual, Service to the Customer and Excellence in the pursuit of our goals. I am glad that we have followed these principles over the last twenty years. Focus on Quality and the commitment to offer our customers excellence in service, to meet their growing needs, have been the underlying factors of the groups� success. We at Sona are constantly upgrading our core competencies and aligning objectives at all levels to help achieve customer satisfaction. The Group has adopted world-class contemporary manufacturing practices like the Toyota Production System (TPS), group Kaizen activity, participative management and break through management, to continuously learn and grow. One of our group companies has the unique distinction of being the second Indian company to receive both the Deming and TPM Excellence Awards. The Group recently started its journey exploring disruptive technologies to bring them to market in the future.
