A DELICATE BALANCE between lemon juice and water is what makes good lemonade. Too much lemon and the drink turns sour. Excess water makes it bland. The country’s largest carmaker Maruti Suzuki’s reinvention strategy is much like perfecting this lemonade, with Bharat and India as the two key ingredients.
