Mahindra Truck and Bus Division, formerly called Mahindra Navistar [1] / Mahindra International, [2] is an Indian commercial vehicle manufacturer formed in 2005 from a joint venture between Navistar International (49%) of the United States and Indian automobile maker Mahindra & Mahindra (51%). [3] It has been demerged [4] into Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd and became a separate division.
Mahindra Truck and Bus Division's head office is located in Chinchwad, Pune, and its manufacturing line is inside Mahindra Vehicles Manufacturers Ltd., Chakan, Pune.
In 2016, the Mahindra Truck and Bus Division announced a joined road safety initiative with the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, the national #HaveaSafeJourney (#HASJ) awareness campaign. [6] This involved a writing contest for 30 short stories related to road safety issues, which the following year were published as a book. [7] Among notable writers contributing to the book were Tuhin Sinha, who also acted as project advisor, [6] Kiran Manral and Pankaj Dubey. [8]
