Speaking at the listing ceremony at the National Stock Exchange (NSE), Euisin Chung, Executive Chairman, Hyundai Motor Company, held the IPO shows that HMIL is a “key part of India”. This is the first IPO for a unit of the South Korean automaker outside South Korea.
“As we move forward, HMIL will continue to embrace the highest standards in governance. Through its board of directors, HMIL will make prudent, transparent and timely decisions. Also, our commitment to localization will continue, based on the spirit of collaboration and shared growth. Our commitment to being a pioneer in future technologies will continue as well – right here in India”, Chung said.
As part of its effort to introduce clean mobility solutions for Indian buyers, Hyundai will launch four electric vehicles in the market here starting with the electrified version of the Creta in the fourth quarter of the ongoing fiscal year. The company will additionally work on developing a local vendor base and adequate charging infrastructure to price these vehicles competitively and facilitate ease of ownership among customers.
Chung informed, “In all of this, HMIL will continue to be a key player of the “Make in India” initiative. As India marches toward its “Viksit Bharat 2047” vision, Hyundai will stand as a trusted partner in this meaningful journey.”
