Auto components maker Minda Corporation on Thursday said it has inked a pact to form a joint venture with Taiwan-based HSIN Chong Machinery Works to produce sunroofs for passenger vehicles. The joint venture will offer a full system solution ranging from design, and development to manufacturing of sunroof for passenger vehicles, the company said in a statement. With changing consumer preferences for premiumisation, the market for sunroof in India is expected to reach USD 500-600 million by 2030, it added. "With the changing consumer preferences and increasing demand for premium features, the market for Sunroof and other advanced vehicle access products is expected to grow multi-fold in the years to come. "Our continuous focus to bring new and advanced technology products will lead the next phase of our growth," Minda Corporation Executive Director Aakash Minda said. The collaboration will help the company stay at the forefront by offering localised solutions, he added. Commenting

"Minda Industries has issued the commercial paper of Rs 50 crore with allotment date June 17, 2021, and due for maturity on August 11, 2021," the company said in a regulatory filing.

It was incorporated in 2019. The company is in the process of setting up the project.
