The Indian auto industry has witnessed a big change in the past couple of years. Earlier, Maruti Suzuki and Hyundai were the top two manufacturers; however, things are changing rapidly. Homegrown automakers, Mahindra and Tata Motors are growing at a fast pace and have already defeated Hyundai multiple times in the past two years to grab 2nd position in the list of top car makers in India.
