JSW Motors and KPIT Technologies have entered a multi-year partnership to develop the software and digital infrastructure for JSW’s upcoming new energy vehicle portfolio. As per the reports, this includes systems for electric, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid vehicles.
JSW Motors, part of the JSW Group, is investing $3 billion over the next 5 years in its automotive business. The company is building a 630-acre manufacturing hub in Bidkin, Maharashtra. Its first vehicle is expected to launch in the second half of FY26.
KPIT Technologies will support JSW by offering its experience in software-defined vehicle (SDV) systems. The company has worked on over 2,000 vehicle programs globally and will bring in capabilities for electric propulsion and battery-related software.
As part of the agreement, KPIT will establish a Centre of Excellence exclusively for JSW Motors. This facility will focus on engineering and development efforts tied to JSW’s vehicle roadmap. The work will begin with JSW’s main vehicle program.
Initial revenue from the partnership is expected to be recorded by KPIT in the next quarter. The engagement is expected to run for three years, with additional scale-up likely depending on product rollout phases.
KPIT had previously stated its intention to deepen its focus on markets like India and China. The JSW collaboration aligns with that plan. The company is also developing AI tools specific to mobility and vehicle systems.
The passenger vehicle segment in India is seeing increasing interest from both domestic and global players in electric and hybrid technologies. The JSW-KPIT partnership is among several moves in the direction of clean mobility and software-defined vehicles.
