Over 240 Japanese companies are shaping Maharashtra’s industrial story
Japan’s partnership with Maharashtra goes far beyond business – it’s become a blueprint for strong bilateral economic collaboration. Maharashtra has attracted the highest number of Japanese companies in India, with Pune, Mumbai, Supa (Ahmednagar), and Aurangabad turning into high-potential cities for young professionals seeking a career with global exposure.
🔹 Pune: Automotive and manufacturing powerhouse
With a growing cluster of Japanese firms in Talegaon and Chakan, Pune continues to attract giants like Mitsubishi Electric, which opened its latest manufacturing plant here in 2024. The auto and precision industries are booming, and the demand for Japanese-speaking professionals is steadily rising.
🔹 Mumbai: Infrastructure and lifestyle
Mumbai is not just the finance capital—it’s where massive infrastructure projects like the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link, funded by Japan (JICA), are rewriting the city’s future. Japanese lifestyle brand Nitori will also debut in India via Mumbai, opening its first store in late 2024.
🔹 Supa: A township built for Japan
The Supa Parner MIDC near Ahmednagar is a dedicated Japanese Industrial Cluster. With special support from the state government, it’s become home to several Japanese SMEs and support industries. It’s an ideal place for small-town youth to target global careers, without leaving their hometowns.
🔹 Aurangabad: Emerging on the investment map
Once known primarily for tourism, Aurangabad is now on the radar of Japanese manufacturers. Its industrial zones are seeing growing interest from precision and auto component firms. The city’s skilled talent pool and improving infrastructure are key attractors.
💡 Did you know?
Maharashtra alone accounts for over 22% of all Japanese FDI in India. The state’s capital, infrastructure, industrial policy, and workforce are why global Japanese businesses choose it as their Indian base.
Why language matters in this growth story
While many think only metro city youth can benefit from global jobs, the truth is: companies are setting up in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities like Ahmednagar and Aurangabad. What they need are skilled individuals who understand Japanese communication and work culture.
