Toyota Kirloskar Motor Signs MoU with Government of Maharashtra to Develop Government School Infrastructure at Bidkin
In line with its enduring commitment to sustainable social impact and holistic community development, Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Zilla Parishad to support the comprehensive infrastructure development of Zilla Parishad Kendriya Prathamik School (ZPKPS) in Bidkin, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar. The MoU exchange ceremony took place at the Collector Office and was attended by key dignitaries including Shri Deelip Swami, Collector & District Magistrate, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar; Shri Ankit, Chief Executive Officer, Zilla Parishad; and senior officials from Education Department. Representing TKM were Sudeep Dalvi, Chief Communication Officer, Senior Vice President & Head State Affairs; along with senior executives from the Company. The Bidkin school initiative also aligns with TKM's growing engagement in the region, complementing its recently announced investment for setting up a new greenfield manufacturing facility in Maharashtra—aimed at fostering industrial development and generating employment. Education as a Core Pillar of Toyota's CSR Philosophy Education remains a central element of TKM's corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategy, founded on the principle that empowering individuals through learning is essential for achieving sustained, inclusive societal progress. In a country as demographically and economically varied as India, equitable access to quality education is a vital driver of upward mobility across social, economic, and intellectual spheres. Acknowledging this, TKM has aligned its educational initiatives with national programmes such as Skill India and the National Education Policy. Focusing on early childhood care, foundational literacy, school infrastructure, and access to essential learning resources, TKM seeks to address systemic challenges and create learning environments equipped for the future. This approach reflects Toyota's child-to-community model, which recognises that investing in children's education can drive broader societal transformation—benefiting not only individual students, but also their families and communities, thereby creating far-reaching, inclusive progress. This philosophy is encapsulated in Toyota's notion of 'Samuday Vikas', emphasising holistic community development. ZPKPS Bidkin: A Century-Old Institution with Growing Needs ZPKPS Bidkin is a 100-year-old institution serving children from economically disadvantaged, diverse communities. It is one of the largest government schools in the region in terms of student intake, currently accommodating over 800 students. With enrolment expected to rise to approximately 1,200 students in the near future, there is an urgent need to enhance the quality and capacity of the school's infrastructure to support inclusive and effective learning. In response to the growing educational needs of the region, this initiative seeks to transform ZPKPS Bidkin into a modern, inclusive, and future-ready learning environment. The intervention will be carried out in a phased manner over a three-year period from 2025 to 2028. Present at the occasion, Deelip Swami, Collector & District Magistrate, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar said, 'We welcome this collaboration with Toyota Kirloskar Motor to upgrade the infrastructure of ZPKPS Bidkin, a school that has been central to educating children from economically weaker sections in the region. With student numbers expected to grow significantly, this initiative comes at a crucial time and will greatly enhance the learning environment. Strengthening public education through such collaborative efforts is key to ensuring inclusive development. We appreciate Toyota's proactive contribution toward this shared goal and are confident that the project will create lasting value for the children and the broader community of Bidkin.' Speaking at the MoU signing, Sudeep Dalvi, Chief Communication Officer, Senior Vice President & Head State Affairs, Toyota Kirloskar Motor said, 'At Toyota Kirloskar Motor, our commitment to nation-building extends beyond mobility solutions. We firmly believe that education is one of the most powerful enablers of long-term, inclusive development. By creating a nurturing and modern learning environment for nearly 1,200 students, we are investing in the potential of future generations. This MoU reflects our continued collaboration with government stakeholders in delivering high-impact interventions that strengthen the social fabric of our communities. This initiative marks the beginning of our engagement in the state, as we move forward, our efforts will remain rooted in our core philosophy of 'Creating Mobility for All'—that can transform lives and uplift entire communities.' TKM's Broader CSR Impact and Alignment with National Priorities Toyota Kirloskar Motor's CSR interventions reflect a consistent focus on sustainable, inclusive growth and community empowerment. As of March 31, 2025, the company's cumulative CSR initiatives have positively impacted over 4.24 million lives (42,46,246) across the country. In FY 2024–25 alone, the company undertook high-impact interventions across its six core CSR pillars—Education, Health & Hygiene, Environment, Skill Development, Road Safety, and Disaster Management—alongside its structured employee volunteering initiative, iCARE. These initiatives, thoughtfully designed to empower communities at the grassroots level, are aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and national missions such as Viksit Bharat 2047, Skill India, and Swachh Bharat. By continuing to collaborate with government bodies, academic institutions, and non-profits, TKM aims to deepen its contributions to national goals while advancing Toyota's global philosophy of 'Creating Mobility for All.'

Thailand adjusts EV policy to ease production requirements, target exports
Thailand adjusted an electric vehicle incentive policy on Wednesday to give carmakers more flexibility to meet production requirements and boost exports, amid tepid domestic demand and intense competition as Chinese brands flood the local market. Under its EV policy launched in 2022, Thailand allowed duty-free imports under the condition that domestic EV output of automakers would match the number of imports by 2024, and then they would produce 1.5 units for every imported unit by 2025. The Board of Investment said locally produced EVs that were exported would now count towards the target, a shift from the previous policy of only counting locally registered vehicles. "The revisions approved today will allow greater flexibility and help Thailand, which is already the leader in the region's automotive manufacturing industry, to become a key EV production base," the Board's secretary-general Narit Therdsteerasukdi said. Southeast Asia's second-largest economy is regional auto production and export hub for top carmakers like Toyota and Honda. Chinese brands dominate the EV segment, with a combined share of over 70 per cent of sales. The EV policy, which also includes tax breaks and price subsidies, has drawn more than $4 billion in investments, including from Chinese firms BYD and Great Wall Motors. Last year, the Board of Investment gave an extension to the initial local production timeline to avoid oversupply, as the sector has struggled with weak demand in a sluggish economy. The tweaked scheme is forecast to take EV exports to about 12,500 units this year and 52,000 units in 2026, the board said. In April, Thailand made its first EV shipment of 660 vehicles.
