On Tuesday, April 21, 2026, VST CoreB Trailers officially cemented its position as a dominant force in Asia’s transport sector by operationalizing its massive manufacturing facility near Kotputli, Rajasthan.
Spanning 235,000 square metres, the plant is now the largest dedicated trailer manufacturing facility in India, representing a critical shift from local unorganized fabrication to high-tech, industrialized production.
Production Powerhouse: Trailers & Buses
The facility is engineered for extreme volume without sacrificing the customization required by the Indian logistics market.
| Segment | Monthly Capacity | Annual Potential |
| Trailers | ~1,800 units | 22,000 units |
| Buses | 200–250 units | ~3,000 units |
| Total Ecosystem | ~2,000 units | ~25,000 units |
- Bus Segment Entry: The plant marks the group’s formal entry into bus manufacturing, utilizing shared technology and manpower to create a multi-modal mobility hub.
- Rapid Throughput: Standard trailer configurations can move from raw fabrication to dispatch in just 15 to 16 hours, while even fully customized units are completed within 24 hours.
Technology: The Micron-Level Edge
Managing Director Vikas Yadav has positioned technology as the “core differentiator” to solve the industry’s historical issues with inconsistency and corrosion.
- Robotic Precision: The plant features semi-robotic welding lines and robotic cells that achieve micron-level tolerances, a significant leap from manual “arc welding” common in the sector.
- Automated Paint Lines: Two semi-robotic continuous paint lines (15m and 21m) utilize integrated curing ovens. This ensures a 24-minute cycle time per trailer, providing superior corrosion resistance essential for long-haul infrastructure.
- Material Integrity: Double-leveller cut-to-length machines and laser cutting systems ensure that structural members are perfectly uniform, enhancing the trailer’s life and payload efficiency.
Market Strategy: Logistics & Export Growth
The commissioning is timed to capitalize on the “Telangana Rising” and “PM Gati Shakti” infrastructure waves, where the market is shifting from rigid trucks to high-efficiency trailers.
- Hub-and-Spoke Logistics: As warehouses move outside city limits, high-payload trailers are becoming the natural choice for moving volume efficiently.
- Global Ambitions: VST CoreB intends to export 30–40% of the plant’s output. Target markets include Australia, Saudi Arabia, and Africa, with production lines already aligned to meet these regions’ global compliance standards.
- Service Network: To ensure “uptime” for fleet owners, the company is expanding its network beyond its current 90 authorized workshops, planning new company-controlled zonal service centers this year.
Environmental & Economic Impact
The facility is a major boost for the Rajasthan industrial corridor, creating thousands of skilled jobs in welding, robotics, and digital integration. By focusing on weight optimization through R&D, VST CoreB trailers are designed to carry more goods per trip, effectively reducing the carbon footprint per ton-kilometer for Indian logistics companies.
“This plant is not about just numbers. It is about setting a new standard for how trailers should be designed, built, and delivered in India, without compromising on quality or timelines.” — Vikas Yadav, Managing Director, VST CoreB Trailers.
