Komaki Electric Vehicles has announced the launch of its second lithium battery manufacturing facility in Udyog Vihar, Gurugram, marking a significant expansion in its electric vehicle (EV) production capabilities.

Spread across 40,000 square feet, the newly inaugurated plant is being positioned as one of the largest integrated EV battery manufacturing units in North India. The facility has been developed with an investment of ₹30 crore and is equipped to produce up to 10,000 lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries per month, translating to an annual capacity of 1,20,000 units.

The company stated that the new unit will play a key role in supporting its growing EV portfolio while strengthening domestic battery manufacturing. Komaki has chosen to focus exclusively on LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) and LMFP (Lithium Manganese Iron Phosphate) technologies, citing their advantages in safety, durability, and performance.

These battery chemistries are known for their high thermal stability, fire-resistant characteristics, longer life cycles, and faster charging capabilities, making them suitable for Indian operating conditions. Komaki’s battery systems are designed to deliver up to 2,500 charge cycles and are backed by warranty options of three and five years for LFP and LMFP batteries, respectively.

The facility has also been developed with a focus on sustainability, incorporating manufacturing processes aimed at reducing material wastage and improving resource efficiency, in line with the company’s broader environmental goals.

Commenting on the development, Gunjan Malhotra said the new plant represents a major step toward building a self-reliant EV ecosystem in India, while reinforcing the company’s commitment to safety, innovation, and indigenous manufacturing.
