As India’s two-wheeler segment evolves toward cleaner, more efficient mobility, the demand for professionally trained technicians is rising in both urban and semi-urban markets. In response, ASDC implemented the Sankalp Jeevika project under the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) with the aim of developing a new generation of two-wheeler service professionals through targeted skilling interventions.
Spanning nine cities—including Ranchi, Bhubaneswar, Hajipur, Ghaziabad, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Bhopal, Chennai, and Cochin—the project focused on the job role of Two-Wheeler Preventive Maintenance and Repair Technician, a critical service segment for the evolving mobility ecosystem. Delivered through a network of Skill Development Centres (SDCs), the program integrated domain-specific knowledge with hands-on practical learning to produce workforceready service professionals.
| Metric | Traget | Achieved |
|---|---|---|
| Participants Trained | 720 | 739 |
| Assessments Completed | 648 | 627 |
| Candidates Placed | 486 | 470 |
From January 2023 to March 2025, the program surpassed its initial training target, enrolling 739 participants against a target of 720. Of these, 627 candidates successfully completed assessments, and 470 candidates—over 70%—secured employment with authorized dealerships, workshops, and service networks. A noteworthy feature of the project was its focus on inclusion. With 94 women trained, the program made strides in creating gender-balanced access to traditionally male-dominated technical roles. This aligns with ASDC’s commitment to building an equitable and future-ready talent pipeline across the automotive value chain.
