Maruti Suzuki: According to firm Senior Executive Officer, Marketing & Sales Shashank Srivastava, Maruti Suzuki India’s goal to produce 20 lakh vehicles this year may fall just short.

The committee had recommended a floor and ceiling price for natural gas produced from legacy fields of state-owned producers to restrain input prices for CNG and fertiliser. However, until full price deregulation is enacted in 2027, this rate would be subject to a ceiling or cap price of USD 6.5 per million British thermal units.
