Synaty Becomes First in North India to Secure AIS 153 Certification

Synaty Automotive Pvt. Ltd. has emerged as the first bus body builder in North India to secure AIS 153 certification for sleeper buses from the International Centre for Automotive Technology. The achievement places the company among a select group of manufacturers nationwide that have complied with the now mandatory safety standard.

With AIS 153 becoming compulsory for new buses manufactured in India, the certification marks a critical step for bus body builders aiming to remain compliant and competitive in a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape.

What AIS 153 Means for the Industry

The AIS 153 standard is part of the Automotive Industry Standards framework introduced by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways to strengthen structural integrity, passenger safety, and overall performance in bus body construction.

The regulation sets mandatory benchmarks for design, materials, crashworthiness, fire resistance, and emergency systems in sleeper and seater-sleeper buses. With the norms now enforced across the country, certification has become essential for manufacturers catering to long-distance and overnight travel segments.

Industry observers note that stricter compliance requirements are reshaping the bus manufacturing ecosystem, particularly in the sleeper coach category, where safety and durability are critical considerations for fleet operators.

Leadership Statement on Safety Commitment

Commenting on the development, Naresh Yadav, Managing Director of Synaty Automotive Pvt. Ltd., described the certification as a reflection of the company’s sustained focus on safety and engineering excellence.

He stated that becoming the first bus body builder in North India to secure AIS 153 reinforces the company’s commitment to building safer, stronger, and more reliable sleeper buses. According to Yadav, the certification goes beyond regulatory approval and represents the organisation’s long-term dedication to passenger safety and manufacturing standards.

Growing Presence from Neemrana

Based in the industrial area of Neemrana, Synaty Automotive Pvt. Ltd. has built a reputation for delivering customised and robust bus body solutions. Its portfolio spans luxury coaches, sleeper buses, and seater-sleeper configurations.

The company has invested strategically in engineering capabilities, skilled manpower, and stringent testing processes to align with global standards. The AIS 153 certification further strengthens its standing among bus body builders with advanced compliance credentials across India.

Competitive Edge in a Tightening Regulatory Market

As safety regulations tighten, particularly for long-haul passenger transport, manufacturers holding AIS 153 certification are expected to gain a competitive advantage. Fleet operators, transport agencies, and OEM partners increasingly prioritise certified safety standards when selecting manufacturing partners.

With this milestone, Synaty Automotive has elevated its profile within the commercial vehicle ecosystem and positioned itself at the forefront of compliant sleeper bus body manufacturing in North India.
