The first Maruti car Owners was a SIKH FAMILY from DELHI named Harpal Singh and Gulshanbeer Kaur
Harpal Singh and Gulshanbeer Kaur of Delhi became the first proud owners of the first Maruti 800 car in 1983. The couple bought the car for Rs 47,500 and its keys were handed to them by the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. The Maruti 800 fuelled a car revolution in the country and became a symbol of status for the Indian middle class in the 1980s.
The Maruti 800 which was a symbol for the Indian middle class for decades is ready to roll into the sunset. But you have a chance to drive some history into your garage. Harpal Singh and Gulshanbeer Kaur - proud owners of the country's first Maruti 800 - might put the vehicle up for sale. -
A little white car covered with garlands came out from a factory in Gurgaon on December 14, 1983, and at the wheel of India’s first Maruti 800 was Indian Airline employee Harpal Singh heading towards his Green Park residence.
The next day Harpal planned the first trip in his car to Meerut along his wife Gulshanbeer Kaur, elder daughter Govinder Pal Kaur, her husband Tejinder Ahluwalia and younger daughter Sunita Walia.
