TGSIN supplies interiors and exteriors and other parts mainly to Toyota Motor in South India, while TGMIN supplies airbags, steering wheels, and other parts mainly to Suzuki Motor in North India. With this restructuring, Toyoda Gosei intends to develop a more flexible supply system in India that is not bound by product categories.
