Why OEMs Source from Modern Automotives

IATF 16949 Quality System

All seven manufacturing plants operate under IATF 16949:2016 certification, providing the documented process controls and traceability that enterprise OEM procurement requires.

Multi-Process Forging Capability

Hot forging, warm forging, cold forming, and net-shape CNC machining are available under one organisation, enabling buyers to consolidate their supplier base for powertrain, suspension, and structural parts.

Simulation-Validated Die Design

Deform 3D finite-element simulation is used for warm-forged differential pinion shafts and bevel gear sets, reducing die iterations and improving first-part approval timelines.

Advanced Surface Treatment In-House

RUBIG plasma nitriding and Aichelin Unitherm sealed quench furnace capabilities cover case hardening, gas carburizing, carbonitriding, and through hardening without external subcontracting.

Proven Tier-1 OEM Delivery

Stem comp steering assemblies are in active Tier-1 supply to HMSI, and BMW EV-platform pinion shafts with DLC coating are in production, demonstrating the capability to meet premium OEM specifications.

Seven Plants, Scalable Capacity

Facilities across Punjab, Haryana, Karnataka, and Gujarat distribute production risk and allow capacity scaling for new platforms without single-site bottlenecks.

Sourcing FAQ

What type of supplier is Modern Automotives, manufacturer, trader, or agent?

Modern Automotives Limited is a direct manufacturer. All forging, machining, heat treatment, and surface treatment operations are performed across the company's own seven plants in India. There is no third-party subcontracting of core manufacturing.

Which vehicle and industrial segments do your components cover?

The production range covers 2-wheeler (scooter and motorcycle), 3-wheeler and auto-rickshaw, passenger car, commercial vehicle, agricultural equipment, electric vehicle, railway, and aerospace and defence segments. HS codes include 8708.29, 8409.99, 8714.19, 8483.10, 8708.99, 8483.40, and 8483.40.

Which quality certifications apply to your manufacturing plants?

The facilities hold IATF 16949:2016 for automotive quality management, ISO 14001:2015 for environmental management, and ISO 45001:2018 for occupational health and safety. Buyers should request plant-level certification scope documents during qualification.

Do you supply to OEMs or only to Tier-1 suppliers?

Modern Automotives supplies at both Tier-1 and direct OEM levels. Stem comp steering assemblies are in active Tier-1 supply to HMSI, and EV-platform components including a DLC-coated pinion shaft are in production for BMW (supplier-declared; confirm program scope before ordering).

Can you support customisation or new part development?

Yes. The engineering team uses Deform 3D simulation for die and process development on forged parts. Cold-forged variants, such as the cold-forged stem comp steering assembly, may be in development phase; confirm production readiness for specific part numbers during initial discussions.

How do I request pricing or initiate a sourcing discussion?

Complete the inquiry form on this page with your part requirements, target volumes, and application segment. The team will respond with a pricing request acknowledgement and advise on the qualification and sample process.
