Skoda Auto to double production in India

The Skoda Auto car manufacturer plans to double production at its plant in the Indian town of Aurangabad and export to Bangladesh this year. Skoda Auto is based in the central Bohemian town of Mlada Boleslav but is now owned by Germany's Volkswagen Group. Skoda has already invested 100 million euros in the Indian plant. It is the manufacturer's only plant outside Europe and currently produces some 15,000 vehicles a year.
