"TVS Motor Company is gearing up to restart operations as per state guidelines and is undertaking strong measures to safeguard the health of the employees. We are optimistic about the potential demand for personal mobility once things normalise," the company said in an announcement today.

Rhe Company’s plants have been closed since March 23, in compliance with the Government of India guidelines. 

Maruti Suzuki, Skoda Auto and MG Motor were some of the firms that had earlier reported zero domestic sales for the month of April.
