Maruti Suzuki India has announced a strategic partnership with SMFG India Credit to make commercial vehicle ownership easier and more affordable for small business owners. This collaboration aims to offer customised financing options for Maruti Suzuki’s popular light commercial vehicles, the Super Carry and Eeco Cargo.
This new partnership is designed to support small-scale business owners and fleet operators, especially in semi-urban and rural areas. These areas often face challenges in accessing flexible and reliable credit options. With this tie-up, customers will be able to get easier vehicle loans, helping them expand or start their transport businesses without financial stress.
SMFG India Credit will offer tailored credit support, allowing Maruti Suzuki dealers to provide complete vehicle-finance packages. This means that customers can now buy their commercial vehicle and arrange financing, all in one place. The aim is to make the buying process smoother and faster, which is crucial for small businesses that rely on time-sensitive deliveries and logistics.
According to Maruti Suzuki officials, Partho Banerjee and Nobutaka Suzuki, the Super Carry and Eeco Cargo have already built a strong customer base among small business owners. These vehicles are known for their affordable pricing, durability, and practical design, making them a smart choice for cargo transport in cities and villages alike.
Representatives from SMFG India Credit, Ajay Pareek and Swaminathan Subramanian, highlighted the role of accessible credit in economic empowerment. The company will use its wide lending network and digital platforms to provide end-to-end financing solutions. Their goal is not only to support Maruti Suzuki customers but also to grow their reach in the retail vehicle loan sector.
This partnership is also a step towards financial inclusion, helping more people access the funds they need to grow their businesses. By joining forces with India’s leading car manufacturer, SMFG India Credit plans to make commercial vehicle financing simpler, faster, and more accessible.
