Five-year plans
At Motherson, we like to commit to our five-year targets by communicating them through our annual reports of Motherson Sumi Systems Ltd. We’ve done so since the year 2000, and although top-line accomplishments will never be pursued at the expense of healthy bottom-line, we have managed to achieve mostly all of the targets of our five-year plans ever since.
