Royal Enfield To Invest ₹2,200 Crore In Andhra Pradesh Plant

Royal Enfield, the flagship motorcycle division of Eicher Motors, has received approval to set up a new manufacturing facility at Satyavedu in Tirupati district, Andhra Pradesh. The company plans to invest ₹2,200 crore in two phases for this project.

This expansion is significant as it marks Royal Enfield’s first major manufacturing footprint addition since it began operations in Tamil Nadu in 1955. The new plant is expected to enhance production capacity and support rising domestic and global demand for mid-size motorcycles.
