This speaks volumes about the shift in Maruti's approach toward safety. The certification is highly effective in gaining a competitive edge because consumers in India are very conscious about the safety features of vehicles these days. Also, since Bharat NCAP is an indigenous testing standard by the Indian government, achieving a high rating under this program uplifts its image among Indian masses.
