The wide range of BMW activities in India include the establishment of a production plant in Chennai (Tamil Nadu) and development of a dealer organisation across major metropolitan centres of the country.


On 29 March 2007, BMW India officially opened its production plant in Chennai. The BMW Plant Chennai produces the BMW 3 Series, BMW 5 Series sedans and the BMW X1 in petrol and diesel variants.


The BMW Plant Chennai has the capacity to produce 8000 units per year on a single shift basis.


BMW India will employ around 400 people by end of 2010. Up to 1200 jobs will be created in the dealer and service network by end of 2012.

International Purchase Office

The International Purchasing Office (IPO) established at BMW India’s Headquarters in Gurgaon identifies and assesses potential suppliers for BMW, MINI, and BMW Motorcycles taking into account BMW Group’s requirements for quality, technology and logistics. The IPO strongly focuses on increasing the sourcing of production material (components) as well as IT and engineering services from India to the BMW Group International Production Network
