Maruti Suzuki has announced that two of their plants will observe no production days on 7 September and 9 September 2019. The production facilities include those located in Gurugram and Manesar. The Gujarat facility will continue to be operational as per schedule.

Maruti manufactures models such as the Celerio, Ciaz, Vitara Brezza and the WagonR at the Manesar factory. Meanwhile, models like the Alto, Eeco, Ertiga and the S-cross are manufactured at the Gurugram factory.
