The Lighting division of Minda Industries Limited develops and manufactures world-class lighting products for 2/3 wheelers, off-roaders and 4 wheeler vehicles. Its annual sales for 2005-2006 were over Rs. 904 million ( USD 22.32 million).

At the Lighting division, the emphasis is on rapid development of new products. The mix of excellent resource planning, latest infrastructure, skilled manpower and high technological competence helps the company in its mission to manufacture globally competitive products.

The Lighting Division of Minda has 3 state of the art, fully equipped manufacturing facilities based at Manesar, Pune & Sonepat and employ around 500 people.

Lighting products are intrinsic to the very design of the vehicle. Whether it is the aesthetics or the safety aspects, the focus of any new vehicle design is on the placement of head, tail and side lamps.

Specialized facilities for "Concurrent Engineering" are available at Minda Lighting Division, wherein the involvement of the company begins right from the concept stage of a new vehicle by the OEMs. As customers develop new designs of vehicles, Minda assists in simultaneously engineering and designing the lighting products. These are also modelled and prototyped alongside.

The company has developed well-defined processes that minimise the lead time required for prototype development. A clearly defined road map identifies customer requirements, then moves to styling design, 3 D model design, optical design and rapid prototyping. Once the prototype has been developed, tooling, vehicle trials and fitments take place. Before mass production, engineering tests and prior runs ensure high quality products and optimization of resources.
