The government and Planning Commission endorsed the concept, and Gandhi initiated his automotive project in a rented garage near Roshanara Bagh in Old Delhi. In September 1970, the government issued a letter of intent allowing Gandhi to produce up to 50,000 cars in a year. In August 1971, Maruti Motors Limited was established, with Gandhi becoming its first managing director. Initially, plans were to manufacture an indigenous car priced at around Rs 8,000. However, the cost of the vehicle escalated to around Rs 16,500 (ex-showroom) and about Rs 21,000 on the road in Haryana.
Despite the increase in price, the Maruti car remained competitively priced.The first prototype of the Maruti car was completed in 1972, with production anticipated to commence by April 1973. Despite allegations of nepotism, the prototype failed a feasibility test, being deemed unsuitable for road use. In July 1974, Maruti was granted an industrial license to produce 50,000 cars. However, the actual production output fell short of the initial target, with only 21 units manufactured by March 1976.Sanjay Gandhi’s involvement in politics during the Emergency further complicated the project’s progress. Following Indira Gandhi’s defeat in the 1977 election and a court order for Maruti’s dissolution in 1978, the government of India intervened and assumed control of Maruti through legislative measures.
