Royal Enfield, has raised its manufacturing capacity at its Tiruvatriyur facility, near Chennai in Tamil Nadu.
The company has raised the capacity to 10,000 per month from the current 7,000 per month in January 2012. This comes in response to the waiting period for the company's products, which range from 3-6 months. Despite increasing the capacity the company could not meet the market demand.
Meanwhile, by March 2013 company's Oragadam facility, spread over 50 acre, will be ready and both the facilities will have a combined capacity of 1.5 lakh units.
