About Jayem Automotives
Three Generations of Engineering. One End-to-End Mobility Partner.
Jayem Automotives is a mobility-centric technology company with a legacy that spans nearly nine decades of engineering innovation. Our journey began in 1939, with the development of India’s first electric motor—a milestone that laid the foundation for a culture built on deep technical thinking, hands-on engineering, and continuous innovation.
Over three generations, Jayem has evolved into an independent automotive R&D and manufacturing company delivering design, development, testing, validation, and production-ready solutions for components, systems, and complete vehicles.
What We Do
Jayem provides end-to-end engineering, testing, and manufacturing support across automotive and adjacent mobility sectors. Work spans passenger and commercial vehicles, electric mobility, defence and aerospace systems, off-highway and industrial equipment, and special-purpose machines.
Programs are supported through integrated capabilities covering vehicle and system design, powertrain and EV engineering, prototyping, validation, pilot manufacturing, and low-volume production. This breadth allows complex programs to be executed under one ecosystem, reducing dependency on multiple partners and shortening development cycles.
From Art to Part
Engineering at Jayem follows a lifecycle-driven approach where design is closely connected to build and validation. Concepts are developed with clear consideration for manufacturability, testing, certification, and scale-up, ensuring that engineering intent translates smoothly into physical systems.

Speed as a Capability
Speed is embedded into Jayem’s operating model. By combining engineering, testing, and manufacturing within a tightly connected workflow, development timelines are compressed without compromising quality or reliability.
Rapid prototyping, parallel execution, and in-house validation support faster decision-making and quicker response to design changes, helping customers accelerate time-to-market while maintaining confidence in performance and compliance.
A New Chapter: Part of the Murugappa Group
In 2023, Jayem Automotives entered a new phase of growth following its acquisition by the Murugappa Group—through its subsidiary TI Clean Mobility Private Limited. This strategic step strengthens Jayem’s role within the electric and future mobility ecosystem while preserving its engineering-first culture.
The acquisition enables Jayem to scale its engineering programs, expand manufacturing capacity, and accelerate development across electric powertrains, battery systems, and integrated vehicle platforms.
