BII will have a 4.8% ownership in the business, which will focus on four-wheel passenger electric vehicles. The unit will be wholly owned by Mahindra.
“We would expect between 20% to 30% of Mahindra SUVs being electric by 2027,” said M&M executive director Rajesh Jejurikar.
The total capital infusion for the new unit is expected to be about 80 billion rupees ($1.01 billion) spread out between 2024 and 2027, Mahindra said.
