Maybe it might, who knows, but it's not Mahindra.

Who else built these under licence? Hotchkiss M201?

Not Hotchkiss. Since it's rather hard (I think), here's a little hint: it was not built under a license - it's a rip-off.

Moskvich?  It seems a bit smaller than GAZ.

Moskvich is right. Now all you need is to name the model correctly. I'm leaving this puzzle to you for 24 hours.

Right! But according to the information I have, it was made a bit later - in 1957.
