Since March 23, 2020 the TVS manufacturing facilities have been closed in adherence to the lockdown guidelines issued by the Government of India which caused interruption to production and sales during this period. It's also one of the first two-wheeler brands in India to announce salary cuts for employees starting from the month of May 2020 till October 2020.
