Norton Motorcycles Sets Up Indian Subsidiary Under TVS

Norton Motorcycles Sets Up Indian Subsidiary Under TVS

TVS-backed Norton Motorcycles has launched a new Indian subsidiary to drive global expansion, with plans to debut new models in India by late 2025 and roll out four fresh bikes worldwide by 2026.

In a strategic move showing ambition and promise, TVS Motor Company has created a wholly owned subsidiary in India. The new entity operates under the historic Norton Motorcycle banner. Registered on August 19, 2025, it is called Norton Motorcycle Private Limited. This marks TVS’s first step toward embedding the iconic British marque into the growing Indian market.

Bridging Heritage and Local Strategy

Norton UK has subscribed to 10,000 equity shares in the new Indian entity, investing a modest ₹100,000 to secure 100% ownership. While operations are yet to begin, the move clearly lays the groundwork for the brand’s official entry into India.

Since TVS acquired Norton in April 2020 for approximately ₹153 crore, the company has poured over ₹1,000 crore into revitalising the brand. It has invested heavily in product development, research and development, and brand positioning on the global stage.

Timing the Expansion with Trade Winds

India’s signing of the India–UK Free Trade Agreement (FTA) has created favourable conditions for Norton’s launch in the country. The agreement lowers tariffs and streamlines logistics, making imports more financially viable. Norton can now bring both classic and new-generation models into India more easily. These may arrive as fully built units, or they could be produced through local assembly.

Rolling Out in India and Beyond

Reports suggest that Norton could debut in India by the end of 2025, possibly with one or two new-generation models, potentially in the mid-weight 350–450cc segment. Unveilings may take place as early as September 2025.

In parallel, TVS plans to launch four new Norton models globally across the UK, India, and Europe by summer 2026. Highlights include a flagship 1200cc four-cylinder superbike that marries Norton’s premium legacy with TVS’s modern engineering ethos.

Reinvention Over Electric Experimentation

Interestingly, this petrol-focused expansion comes amid Norton’s decision to cancel its electric superbike project, Project Zen. Despite receiving £8.5 million in UK funding, company leaders cited weak consumer demand and industry challenges as a rationale to pivot instead toward high-performance petrol models, like the re-engineered Commando 961 and the V4SV, along with plans for possible U.S. production to avoid tariffs.
