Royal Enfield to set up new Manufacturing Plant in Andhra Pradesh

• Royal Enfield will invest Rs. 2,200 crore in this facility
• It will have an annual capacity of nine lakh units
• Will be operational in 2032

Royal Enfield has announced plans to set up a new manufacturing facility and vendor park in Andhra Pradesh. This will be the company’s first production facility outside Tamil Nadu, where it has built motorcycles since 1955.

The upcoming plant will span 276 acres in the Vanelluru and Rallakuppam villages in the Satyavedu region of Tirupati district. The project will be developed in two phases, with the vendor park expected to be completed by 2029 and the manufacturing facility becoming fully operational by 2032.

Once operational, the new plant will add an annual production capacity of nine lakh motorcycles to Royal Enfield’s existing capacity of around 15 lakh units. The project is also expected to create nearly 5,000 direct and indirect jobs.

The development was confirmed by Andhra Pradesh’s IT and Electronics Minister, Nara Lokesh, undermining the government’s goal to develop automotive manufacturing in the state. This expansion marks a significant step for Royal Enfield as it prepares to cater to growing demand in both domestic and international markets.
