New Delhi: Maruti Suzuki India Limited, which is the largest carmaker, is making ventilators. But it is not doing this all alone as AgVA Healthcare is also working in collaboration with Maruti.

The first order of ventilators will get completed by May end. However, Maruti has made the first ventilator on April 11. The Chairman R C Bhargava said we will support the government in the fight against covid-19.

Maruti Suzuki And AgVA

Since Maruti Suzuki is a carmaker so it has no information and knowledge of technology to make a ventilator. But they found AgVA, a small start-up company, for this process.

AgVA is a company with little production capacity and less than two years of market presence. But the company was approved by the government so Maruti decided to work in collaboration with AgVA, Mr. Bhargava told ANI.
